The Better Business Bureau gave a positive rating to review web site for email fax services, FaxCompare.com, as well as two other websites, Email-Marketing-Options.com and Tax-Compare.com. All three sites are owned and operated by Zilker Ventures, a web publisher focused on providing quality product and service reviews.

(Vocus) December 11, 2009 — The Better Business Bureau (BBB) recently assigned a rating of A- on the Reliability Report for Zilker Ventures, which owns review websites FaxCompare.com, Email-Marketing-Options.com and Tax-Compare.com. According to the BBB, the rating means that Zilker has met BBB Accreditation standards, “which include a commitment to make a good faith effort to resolve any consumer complaints.” “We’re thrilled that we’ve been accredited by the Better Business Bureau,” says Zilker Ventures CEO Gaines Kilpatrick. “We’re committed to providing quality information through our websites that serve consumers, many of whom are also small business owners and entrepreneurs.”

FaxCompare.com, which helps over 20,000 per month select a fax service, reviews internet fax services from companies, such as eFax, MyFax and RingCentral, and features side-by-side comparison chart of the top services. The chart lists the number of pages included in each plan, the number of users allowed, availability of customer support, and pricing, along with several other comparison points. It also reveals any “hidden fees” that might be overlooked by consumers during the sign-up process.

Kilpatrick says that including the hidden fees information on the site shows Zilker’s commitment to the best interests of consumers who use the site. “[Consumers usually don’t have time to read the fine print,” he says, “but our reviewers do. We simply want to share that information to make sure you get a product or service you’re satisfied with.”

Email-Marketing-Options.com reviews services from email marketing companies like Constant Contact, iContact, AWeber and MailChimp. The site rates email marketing services on five key areas: Email Creation, Contact Management, Email Deliverability, Analyzing Reports and Customer Support. Each area was rated on several review criteria that is actually listed on the website.

“We not only test and rate the services, but we also tell you what we test and what the ratings are based on,” says Email-Marketing-Options.com reviewer Koby Wong. “Not many review sites will give you that level of transparency.”

Email-Marketing-Options.com has served nearly 3,000 people per month. It features detailed reviews of twelve of the most popular email marketing services used by both small and large companies to reach customers.

Due to the new color pallette of the page it became more comfortable to read and orient.
As for the main menu, it was also optimized and made like a dropdown menu, everything was sorted by categories, it allows to find necessary info by simply choosing right category tabs.
Fonts, keys and distance between headers were increased and it also makes the homepage more comfortable to use!
Sign up forms are united now and the sign up button was moved to the right part of the page and increased and is more noticeable now.
Also, I would like to note that the new design is modern and trendy, and it is so important in nowadays due to a huge number of sites.

To us, there’s something oddly comforting when the Supreme Court justices all appear on the same page in a case; when Justice Scalia’s comments fax Justice Breyer’s, which, in turn, echo Chief Justice Roberts’s. If all these big brains see a case the same way, we tend to think, they must really be right.

Judging from the tenor of the arguments on Monday, this seems to be the way things are likely to play out in In Re Bilski, one of the larger cases of the term. At issue: the viability of so-called “business-method patents” — intellectual-property protection for financial strategies, risk management techniques, teaching methods, and the like.

According to Jess Bravin, the Journal’s Supreme Court correspondent, the justices were on Monday “skeptical and at times scornful reception to arguments that there should be broader patent protection for “business methods,” which several justices suggested did little to spur the technological progress that patent laws were intended to promote.”

Bravin writes that on Monday, several justices seemed almost contemptuous toward business-method patents, which they contrasted with inventions such as the telephone or Morse Code that an inventor might devise in a laboratory.

That boded ill for Bernard Bilski and Rand Warsaw (pictured), who are seeking to patent a method for hedging risk in commodities trading due to fluctuations in the weather.

Justice Stephen Breyer suggested that the hedging method was too abstract to be patented. The applicants’ argument, he said, meant that “anything that helps any businessman succeed is patentable.”

The Constitution authorizes the government to award limited-time monopolies “to promote the progress of science and useful arts,” Justice Antonin Scalia observed. “That meant, originally, and still means manufacturing arts, arts dealing with workmen, with inventors,” he said. “Not somebody who writes a book on ‘How to Win Friends and Influence People.’”

According to Bravin, the justices seemed most torn over how broad to make their ruling — whether to address the Bilski patent alone or try to draw a broader principle.

“How about if we say something as simple as patent law doesn’t cover business methods?” Justice Sotomayor said. That would avoid what she suggested were potential problems with the scope of the Federal Circuit ruling.

At the same time, Sotomayor seemed to realize that such a decision might be fraught. “I have no idea what the limits of that ruling will impose in the computer world, in the biomedical world, all of the amici who are talking about how it will destroy industries. If we are unsure about that, wouldn’t the safer practice be simply to say it doesn’t involve business methods?” she said.

Hey, guys! How about that?
