As a frequent blogger and writer, it becomes important for me to constantly be online, finding out new things, and researching old archives. It is integral for my job to be exposed to as much new content online as I can be. With the Flipora toolbar, all of the above just becomes easier. It lets me keep a tab of all my favourite topics, and offers brilliant new recommendations on the same. Here I’ve created a simple manual for the first time Flipora downloader for Google Chrome ( As I use Chrome myself ), on how to install, and uninstall the toolbar:

To install Flipora, first Log into Flipora with your Facebook account or create an email account. Then, Head over to the profile tab seen on the right side of your browser, and click on ‘Download. In the dropdown menu’

Click on the download tab which opens up in a new page, and click ‘Add’ on the dialog box that pops up prompting  you to add the extension to your browser page.

Restart your browser, and begin flipping!

If you wish to uninstall Flipora, here’s how to do so, in two simple steps:

Click on Tools in the menu bar and then proceed to Extensions.

Click "Remove from Chrome" trash can icon for "Flipora" extension, to permanently uninstall the toolbar.

IT development is an industry that has billions of dollars worth of global potential. This is because all businesses can use IT software. And the bigger a company or corporation the more complex and therefore the more expensive the IT system it will require. An IT system is necessary in making business processes and other activities automated, faster, and more reliable. IT developers and programmers are two of the highest paying professions today and they are usually employed at a full time basis. Hence, if an IT development company fails to have clients at a regular basis it will suffer significant losses due to the payment of its wages and other expenses.

  IT Buyer Profile Sellers

Buying IT buyer profiles is the most efficient and reliable means of guaranteeing a steady pool of prospects. It will save you a lot of time because you will be provided with a list of companies that have high probability of hiring you to develop IT systems for them. No more wasting time chasing leads that may just be dead. RainKing is the most famous IT buyer profile seller today.  It has established itself as the authority in terms of providing high quality and detailed leads to its clients. Its many years of dominance however, it is now being challenged as DiscoverOrg has appeared claiming to provide better services.

  New Blood in the Industry

DiscoverOrg can be said as the most promising competitor so far. Unlike the previous ones that challenge the colossal entity, this new one seems to have based it’s processes and techniques on significant amounts of research and development efforts. They are expected to be able to contend with RainKing in a head on collision and give the company a run for its money. These recent developments make the future of the industry a lot brighter.

  Benefits to IT Developers

For many years, those who utilize the services of IT data and intelligence providers were content just to have a listing of businesses, numbers, e-mail addresses and company names. But through the innovations introduced in the IT industry, more and more problems are encountered by sales and marketing people working in the field. And most often than not, the listings contain bad data like wrong numbers, non-functional e-mail addresses, incomplete company profile, wrong title or job functions and wrong physical addresses. Unless the IT data provider regularly updates and validates its data, the user usually finds oneself in a dilemma. And should this happen, that would mean lost opportunities and unnecessary expenses on the account of the company.

One of the listing companies in the market, Jigsaw, offers business directory that include contact and company information. They also have a listing of public companies and vertical industry data. However, if a comparison is made between DiscoverOrg vs. Jigsaw, one will easily spot the big difference as far as service is concerned. DiscoverOrg is not only about listings, there’s much more to their offering.

DiscoverOrg is now becoming the best partner for leading technology marketers because of its comprehensive database and intelligence tools that are available 24-hours a day, seven days a week.

Unlike Jigsaw which is only limited to listings, DiscoverOrg has specific IT Org Charts that shows reporting structures, giving a visualization of the authority-flow inside organizations. The company profiles provided by DiscoverOrg also include an overview of the IT departments, the technologies currently used and deployed and the IT infrastructure review. These added services enable sales teams and marketers to understand the relations and dynamics inside the prospect organization.

DiscoverOrg, which is also named by INC 500 as one of the leading companies providing IT data and intelligence solutions, has a highly sophisticated validation system, using experienced systems analysts who regularly check, validate and update contact information from the company’s 15,000-strong Fortune Ranked partner companies.

Unlike Jigsaw, which allows end-users and webcrawlers to update their data, DiscoverOrg ensure that it has a workforce working daily to monitor and record updates and deliver up-to-the-minute feed on Org Charts through its Red Alerts and Real Time Triggers tools.
