November 04, 2013 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
November 4, 2013 - Last Friday database makers Peacock Data demonstrated beta versions of two new product upgrades, pdNickname 2.0 and pdGender 2.0, in front of participants gathered in their Chatsworth, California offices.The company CEO started the event by explaining, "These products have been in development for five years and just passed a one-year milestone in field testing."
pdNickname is a highly regarded name and nickname database on the market since June 2009. pdGender, originally released at the same time, is based on an identical set of names and is designed as a full-featured gender coding database.
The new editions are set for release before the end of 2013 and the company's website is promoting these packages as "revolutionary."
According to the CEO, "In addition to becoming much more useful for businesses and organizations working with lists of names; students, teachers, and researchers benefit because both of these new products are now fully suitable for extensive study in the fields of anthroponymy, onomatology, ethnology, and linguistics."
The new features of these products took up the entire space of a large-screen monitor and three over-sized whiteboards, but customers will be most interested in a large number of additional names and the accompanying details about them.
New features include:
pdNickname 2.0:
pdGender 2.0:
Anyone purchasing current versions on or after November 1, 2013 will receive the upgrade for free the morning of release.
Current owners can pre-order upgrades from the company's website.
More information will become available on the company's website and on their blog during the coming weeks until release date.
