Earth Class Mail Recognized by CIO Magazine as CIO 100 Award Honoree



Earth Class Mail Corp., the global leader in delivering postal mail online, announced that CIO magazine (http://www.cio.com/) has named it a winner of the 2008 CIO 100 Award. The 21st annual award program recognizes organizations around the world that exemplify the highest level of operational and strategic excellence in information technology.



"The CIO 100 honors organizations that have used technology in innovative ways to generate value to the business," said Abbie Lundberg, Editor in Chief of CIO magazine. "Unlike other top lists, it's not just about who's biggest--it's about who's doing the most interesting and relevant things."



"Acknowledgment from a publication deeply versed in technology and respected for providing insight to IT leaders for decades is truly meaningful," said Ron Wiener, CEO and Postmaster General of Earth Class Mail. "Our years of development and innovative systems design, have resulted in an online mail delivery system powerful enough to fundamentally change how individuals, businesses, government, militaries and even national posts process mail. For CIO magazine to take note and include us amongst this list of much larger companies speaks volumes about the impact of our disruptive technology."



Earth Class Mail (http://www.earthclassmail.com/) is the only online postal-mail delivery service for individuals and businesses that scales to national deployment by postal operators so that every Internet-enabled citizen and business in a country can receive postal mail online.



Earth Class Mail acts as a Commercial Mail Receiving Agency for its customers, receiving their mail, scanning the front and back of unopened envelopes and uploading the images to an online mailbox. Customers then go to a secure website where they view the envelope images and decide whether to have Earth Class Mail recycle, shred, forward-ship, or open and scan the contents so they can be securely read online.



More than 90% of customer mail is recycled, a rate four times the U.S. average. People can now view their postal mail from anywhere, which frees them from the burden of paper and the restrictions of a physical address. Individual customers include small businesses, remote workers, road warriors, college students, and anyone with a mobile lifestyle. Enterprise customers include a Fortune 100 company that by next year will have all of its more than 50,000 employees receiving postal mail electronically.



About the CIO 100


The recipients of this year's CIO 100 award were selected through a three-step process. First, companies filled out an online application form detailing their innovative practices in both business and IT. Next, a team of judges reviewed the applications in depth, looking for unique practices and substantial results. Finally, CIO editors reviewed the judges' recommendations and voted on the final 100. Once the top 100 honorees were selected, several honorees were chosen to receive an additional special award.



Complete coverage of the 2008 CIO 100 awards will be in the August 15 issue of CIO magazine and is available online now at www.cio.com.
