CUPERTINO, CA (April 22, 2008) – Never-Search, Inc. creators of the most comprehensive array of golf course information ever assembled has announced that its patented Never-Search for Golf™ travel and trip planning software can now be downloaded directly from its website at www.Never-Search.com. When connected to the Internet, the software acts as a virtual website to plan trips, make reservations, and save locations and notes on places you’re planning to visit. You can then view your travel plans, routes and all other points of interest on your laptop while traveling unconnected from the Internet. Add a GPS receiver mouse and turn your laptop into a navigation system to follow your route with ease.
All points of interest locations are mapped with unparalleled accuracy and are easily updated from the Never-Search website. Clicking on any flag on the map opens an information box displaying a profile of the location. This powerful knowledge-based mapping technology allows you to make reservations, get routes and turn-by-turn directions, mark courses you’ve played and places to visit, keep notes on travel plans, and save files of trip plans.
This robust application includes every street in the U.S. and Canada, is easy to download with a high speed internet connection. The download runs in the background so you can continue to do other work on your personal computer while waiting for it to finish. The program is transmitted in segments, so if it is interrupted, the downloaded segments are saved. The download can then be restarted at any time from a Never-Search desktop icon and the download will resume where it left off.
“Downloading programs can be difficult if you don’t have enough time or if the download is interrupted for some reason,” said Keith Kreft, President, Never-Search, Inc. “The segmentation process we have developed makes it easier to download the entire program with no problems. It makes it more convenient for customers who want to start using the map right away without having to wait for a disk to arrive in the mail.”
Never-Search for Golf started as the most complete and most comprehensive array of golf course information ever placed on a map, and includes all 18,475 golf courses in the U.S. “As we expand the robust content of this mapping system, we will continue to add points of interest for business and recreational travelers such as coffee houses, hotels, RV parks, campgrounds, airports, restaurants, wineries, etc.,” added Kreft.
