HACKETTSTOWN, NJ (10/15/2003) -- TavlidaSoft, Inc. (TavlidaSoft),
a leading provider of online food ordering and online advertising
services, today announced the general release of its Feast4u.com
2.0.
Feast4u.com is a product that contains a portal and restaurant websites
under it. At the portal, patrons can search for restaurant or food.
Then with one click, go to that restaurant site. Once in the restaurant
site, patrons see the restaurant's announcement, 'specials' and
a 'live-like' menu. Patrons can then browse the menu and order food
online. Many restaurants publish photo-rich menus that help patrons
decide what to order.
"We are excited about the release of version 2.0." said
Ronald Liao, VP Marketing of TavlidaSoft "The new version does
not only incorporates many new technologies that elevate our product
to a true enterprise-strength product, it also provide site visitors
many more features that makes it easier for them to find restaurants,
find food, and find 'specials.'" Mr. Liao continues, "With
these features and the richer menu layout, consumers have more freedom
of choice, and restaurant can take advantage of the Internet technology
to enhance their service."
The new functions in Feast4u.com version 2.0 include the architecture
enhancements of incorporating Struts/StrutsCX, ActionCache and Lucene
search engine. The Struts/StrutsCX implements MVC (Model-View-Controller)
model to provide more robust and more flexible development of the
product. The ActionCache increases site performance to the level
of static pages or even faster. The incorporation of another Apache
project, 'Lucene' search engine, provides users more ways to search
for restaurant and food.
Another important new Feast4u.com v.2.0 feature is the improvement
of the portal-sites structure and its underlying mechanism of submitting
to search engines such as 'Google' and 'Yahoo Search.' With the
new XML datafeed submission, Feast4u.com has found itself and its
restaurant sites more and more on top 3 pages of Google Search.
This can be a significant advantage for participating restaurants.
"With the rapidly growing popularity of high speed Internet
connectivity," added Mr. Liao. "companies and restaurants,
small or large, have great opportunity to use the Internet as their
next advertising medium. The coupon books, newspaper ads, and flyers
still will exist, but accessing product or sales information via
the Internet, is definitely is on the horizon. And feast4u.com is
ready to provide this service."

Feast4u.com product also includes functions such as XML Data Exchange
Interface that can insert online orders directly into store POS
system which completely eliminates the order entry. Feast4u.com enterprise
package includes a 'data import' module that accepts store data.
Once imported, feast4u.com uses its XSL processing tools to reformat
and publish the data on the web site in a matter of hours. Feast4u.com'
XML/XSL 'seamless integration' technology allows feast4u.com functions
