Tamela - not sure about your headline…Wide Orbit focuses on broadcast traffic and billing systems.  I don’t think they do anything with online media (much less web analytics) at this point.  If I’m wrong, please let me know.

Arul, duly noted. Their software is Web-based, but its definitely geared toward traditional media trafficking programs. Thanks for the heads up.
