New product uses patented technology to bridge the gap between Linux

                 developers, administrators, and end users.



    BERKELEY, Calif., Aug. 4 /EMWNews/ -- ClickStream Technologies, the

leader in PC and Mac(R) user experience reporting, has today announced the

release of LinuxSight(TM), a data collection tool that gives Linux

developers and administrators a click-by-click view of Linux user activity.

ClickStream Technologies' patented data collection tools, previously

available only for Microsoft Windows(R) and Apple Mac(R) operating systems,

provide a holistic view of computer user behavior across all browsers and

applications, reporting on everything from feature use to hardware

configuration. ClickStream's flagship product, ClickSight(R), and the

subsequent Mac(R) version, MacSight(TM), is currently used around the globe

by companies such as Microsoft and Adobe to better understand both the

trends and particularities of their users' behavior, as well as that of

their competitors.



    "Our focus has always been on the end user and their experience, and

we're excited to expand our analysis to include the Linux community," says

Cameron Turner, CEO of ClickStream Technologies, adding "Although Linux has

a strong developer-to-user connection, its interoperability poses a

challenge to those attempting to measure the user experience and eliminate

inefficiencies."



    LinuxSight(TM) can be easily downloaded onto the machines of study

participants and runs in the background without impeding machine

performance. In a typical study, ClickStream Technologies recruits

thousands of triple-opt- in users and records their click activities,

installed and used applications, and hardware configuration, for 1 to 6

months or longer. LinuxSight(TM) was announced this week in conjunction

with LinuxWorld and will be available in the fourth quarter of 2008.
