n the topic of why Bill created gophoria, he responds, "The reason I developed gophoria is simple. I spend a large amount of my day on the Internet. One afternoon I noticed how often it was that I would be reading something and want a definition, a synonym, maybe need to run a search on a phrase, or sometimes go to a URL that although was on a web page, it wasn't hyperlinked."
"I asked myself how I could get the information that I needed without having to awkwardly copy, open a new browser window, go to my favorite search engine, paste, and then finally run the search. The idea behind gophoria was born."
gophoria is free for general use and distribution.* No time limited evaluation, no accumulation of personal information, the most important thing is that people use it to help them in their research.
The Internet represents a real time accumulation of to-the-second knowledge. In other words, everything we currently know as a global community is immediately available to us through our connection and on our monitors. Knowledge is power and if one of us grows, the rest of us do too.

*please contact Wide Open Media to discuss any for-profit use or distribution.
