PRESS RELEASE
FIRST AFFINITY GROUP TO PROMOTE CUSTOMIZED SPIRITUAL CONTENT,
WHILE REDUCING COMPUTER-RELATED INJURIES
CHESTER, NEW JERSEY - June 3, 2003 - With an estimated $33 billion a year of worker's compensation being paid out for computer-related injuries - such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, elbow, shoulder, back and vision injuries - Magnitude Information Systems, Inc., (symbol: MAGY) the leading developer of Anti-Injury(tm) software, has partnered with Digital Door Productions to deliver customized Christian content in conjunction with its patented software to help prevent these injuries and the costs associated with them.
Focusing on an estimated 2 million Christian Computer Users in the United State's Southeast, Magnitude and Digital Door Productions have enhanced Magnitude's flagship consumer offering, ErgoCoach(tm), to deliver spiritual micro-breaks as a core element of injury
avoidance while using the computer. The product named ErgoShepherd(tm), is scheduled for launch in mid June of this year with airings of ErgoShepherd(tm) infomercials via TV, Cable, and Church based events. ErgoShepherd(tm) will also be available on its own dedicated website www.ErgoShepherd.com. One third of all net proceeds will be donated back to the Christian Community via the Church.
"It's estimated that one out of every six computer users will develop Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or some other form of repetitive stress injury during their lifetime. What a fabulous way to deliver spiritually enlightening messages and prevent computer related injuries and the costs associated with them. And there is no difference whether your computer is at home or in the office." said Mark Chroscielewski, Senior Vice-President, Business Development, of Magnitude.
Steven D. Rudnik, founder, President and Chief Executive Officer, said: "By partnering with Digital Door Productions and offering a spiritual experience to the computer user, we truly deliver a holistic offering for the mind, body and spirit."
"Taking a break with God is just as important as taking a break to prevent Carpal Tunnel Syndrome." said Joey Chase, Chief Executive Officer, Digital Door Productions, "By using ErgoShepherd(tm) to deliver rich media Christian content, we offer moments of
reflection and prayer that would never happen due to the nature of our hectic lifestyles."
