'Our News Tech platforms are a proving ground for a range of our pioneering News Tech models and there are many more to come'— Mr. Rothstein.
WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, USA, May 2, 2022 / EINPresswire.com / -- Internet Product Development Group, Inc. (IPD Group) is announcing the change of its company name to Newsmatics. The name change reflects the company's focus on news technology platform development and its growing ambitions in areas such as media monitoring, custom media analysis, and advanced intelligence software applications for all types of business, academic, and government customers. Newmatics' current platforms include EIN Presswire, Perspectify News App, Affinity Group Publishing, NewsPlugin, and the Newsmatics News Index.
Newsmatics develops and owns market-leading news applications and databases used worldwide by millions of people. It is a world-leading player in the news content distribution and newswire industries via its EIN Presswire.
During 2021, Newsmatics' Affinity Group Publishing division launched 3,900 publications powered by the company's proprietary global news indexing systems, presenting structured news content from thousands of worldwide English language sources. The news index, branded as Newsmatics News Index, is a hybrid business model of content publishing and distribution.
Each publication such as Beijing Free Press, China Daily Sun, Australian News Journal, Egypt Political Times, Saudi Arabia Business Times, The Japanese Globe, Afghanistan News Wire, etc. is dedicated to a specific topic, region, or a combination of both. Affinity Group Publishing uses proprietary tools to populate each publication with topic-relevant and engaging news articles, applying its vast experience from creating its own world-leading newswires. A professional team of content moderators oversees the results, but we are ready to open the platform for readers to further increase the quality of our localized news content.
David Rothstein, CEO of Newsmatics, says, 'Launching 3,900 individually branded news publications in 12 months is no small feat. It represents the depth of technology we possess and the know-how in deploying it. We are reaching deeper into affinity topic communities to present localized content from vetted sources. We aim to help stem the tide of growing news deserts and to give a boost to community journalism. Our future planning leads to hiring local journalists to further increase the quality of our localized news content and help the community of journalists at a time when real journalism is under duress.'
'Our News Tech platforms are a proving ground for a range of our pioneering News Tech models and there are many more to come,' says Mr. Rothstein.
Newsmatics News Index is positioning itself as one of the world's leading real-time news indexes. Newsmatics News Index already catalogs news from online news publications worldwide. Mr. Rothstein says, 'We go deeper than other news indexes in that we expect to index more sources than others and we are building analytics. Analytics will include graphs, charts, forecasts, mapping, sentiment analysis, plagiarism tracking, and even copyright violation detections. We apply mathematics to the news.'

Having trouble opening Chrome? It may be Microsoft's fault
Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR A bug is preventing Windows users from opening Google's Chrome browser. The bug is connected to Microsoft's Family Safety feature. There are a few workarounds, like renaming to Microsoft isn't afraid to deploy tactics to nudge you away from Chrome. For example, earlier this year, Bing users were running into a pop-up that discouraged them from switching browsers. However, the friction between the two isn't always intentional, which could include the current issue that's preventing Windows users from opening Chrome. Spotted by The Verge, a growing number of Windows users are reporting that they are either unable to open Chrome or the browser keeps closing itself. The issue appears to be connected to a bug affecting Microsoft's Family Safety feature, a set of parental controls and filters for Microsoft 365 subscribers. 'Our team has investigated these reports and determined the cause of this behavior,' said a Chrome support manager. 'For some users, Chrome is unable to run when Microsoft Family Safety is enabled.' Strangely, this bug only seems to prevent Chrome from opening. The outlet reports that other browsers, like Opera and Firefox, are unaffected. Although the issue is known, Microsoft has remained quiet about a fix and when it could roll out. In a bug tracking thread, a Chromium engineer said, 'We've not heard anything from Microsoft about a fix being rolled out.' The tech giant also did not respond to the outlet's questions. If you're experiencing this issue, there are some workarounds you can use until a fix is released. Some users on Reddit found that renaming to seemed to work. You can also disable the 'filter inappropriate websites' setting in Family Safety. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .
