The End of the School Year

It’s a good time for reflection and looking forward, since a lot has happened since September 2007.

Actor Matthew Broderick Joins CYBERCHASE
Matthew Broderick is my child hood 80's hero from the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day off." He plays a high school wise guy determined to have a day off from school. He plays this likeable cool guy that everyone wants to be and we follow his fun filled adventures and mishaps of the day. I must have seen the movie a million times and I am thrilled to announce that he will be part of the CYBERCHASE team.

Sneak Previews
New! Improved! Original! Those claims certainly are familiar to any family that has ever walked the aisle of a grocery store. Is the product genuinely new? Is the taste of the cereal really improved? Is the concept actually original?
