Recently, we had some exclusive promotion cards stolen from a public location that had been prepared for a prospective client. Some of these stolen cards were apparently distributed at one of the Target stores in the greater Minneapolis metro. Thanks to the friendly help of the Maple Grove Target Store Manager, the remaining cards were recovered. We regret that these promotion cards were misappropriated and that some people may have found and used them to create new Yugma accounts. We don’t know if other cards might turn up at other stores nearby like Best Buy, OfficeMax, Office Depot or Radio Shack, but we want to encourage anyone who may have recovered a promotion card to either discard them or return them to Yugma, Inc. To thank everyone for their help in this matter we are offering a limited time code that entitles new Yugma users to receive Professional service until June 30th. Please visit www.yugma.com/promotions and enter code: 11515068 when you sign up. Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Another Yugma mention from Marshall Kirkpatrick at ReadWriteWeb.

"We've noticed that many people don't use some tools that would make their lives online much more effective and efficient. Here's our list of some tools we'd suggest are essential. Several of these tools will deliver huge value to your workday and take less than 10 minutes to get set up. Some will be obvious to full time web workers, but some suggestions may not be. They include: a multi-service IM client, cross platform screensharing tool, a custom search engine, a startpage and a blog with contact info." Read more...
