Tinbu, a Pensacola, Florida, based technology company, is pleased to announce they are now providing Stars and Stripes Magazine with an interactive weather channel at their award winning Stripes.com web site. This new global weather product can be seen at the Stripes.com web site here http://www.stripes.com/weather.asp .
"We provide many leading online media groups with our patent-pending content modules," said John Brier, Tinbu's CEO, "and I can honestly say nothing makes us prouder than knowing that U.S. military personnel and their dependents around the world are now using our weather module at Stripes.com. Our military today places soldiers and their families all over the world, and Stripes.com now offers a truly global interactive weather product that will be a useful resource to their online audience every day."
Tinbu utilizes patent-pending technology to create interactive data modules that can be installed in customized formats at web sites looking to add content, page views, repeat users, and increased monetization of their site traffic. The interactive weather module integrated into Stripes.com also provides web search functionality and integrated contextual advertising provided through Tinbu’s alliance with Lycos, Inc. (http://www.lycos.com/), a leading provider of social publishing, media and search services.
“We are thrilled to team with Tinbu to give the visitors to Stars and Stripes.com access to our Lycos Search functionality, helping to provide an enhanced overall user experience to the Stars and Stripes readers,” said Kevin Baillie, Chief Financial Officer for Lycos, Inc.
The interactive weather module provides the following features:
Global coverage searchable by city name or postal code.
Available in Celsius or Fahrenheit on demand.
True 48-hour forecasts broken down by hour for U.S. locations.
Daily commute forecast for morning and evening drive times for U.S. locations.
EPA air quality index reports for 200 major cities in North America.
Moving maps, including Doppler radar, satellite images, temperature, wind, and precipitation.
Built in local time clock for any searched location globally.
Global highs and lows for temperature, wind, and precipitation updated hourly.
Historical climate reports for any location in the world.
Customizable icon sets for each site visitor.
Customizable weather locations stored for each site visitor ( up to 20 locations).
“With readers stationed all over the globe, a dynamic source for up-to-date weather is probably more important to Stars and Stripes than it is to many newspapers with a more localized audience,” said Patrick Woodford, director of electronic publishing for Stars and Stripes. “We serve the global military community, so providing accurate weather for Afghanistan or Iraq is just as important as being able to get the forecast in Texas or New York.”
