`
`Expertcity, a provider of Web-based remote-help technology and services, announced that it was named the
`"People's Choice Award" first runner up for the unveiling of its new GoToMyPC product at Upside's Showcase
`Conference held last week in Palm Springs, CA. GoToMyPC is a Web-based application that allows individuals
`and enterprises to register their PCs and then access and work on those PCs from any Internet location.
`
`"Expertcity's latest technology, GoToMyPC, really impressed the show's attendees," says Jesse Berst, executive
`producer of the event. "A People's Choice Award is an accomplisment that shows GoToMyPC was a crowd pleaser
`that Showcase attendees were talking about."
`
`"We're very honored to have received a People's Choice Award for GoToMyPC," says Brian Donahoo, senior vice
`president of products at Expertcity. "I think that the technology, which allows users to have full access to all of their
`files, programs and network resources available on their desktops from any PC, will change the way the remote and
`mobile workforce gets things done. In the same way that laptops, cell phones and palm pilots extended the office to
`the mobile professional, GoToMyPC puts the full functionality of the office easily within reach from anywhere."
`
`GoToMyPC began its public beta program today. To experience the benefits of GoToMyPC, enterprises and
`individuals can simply go to www.gotomypc.com and register any PC that they wish to make instantly available for
`remote access and control.
