Sydney, NSW -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/16/2010 -- Omnium Software, an emerging force in the Web2.0 scene, launches its latest, unique software geared towards online collaborative creativity for e-learning, social and business needs – with all profits going towards assisting and aiding communities in need.

Who, what, why?

Rick Bennett, and his team at the College of Fine Arts, UNSW, Sydney, Australia, have developed Omnium Software, an intuitive, easy to use, fully customisable and secure Web2.0 system that can be set up in minutes.

Omnium Software’s technically advanced and graphically attractive interface allows anyone to create online communities and social networks for use in business, social and education (e-learning) contexts. Three software categories – Classroom, Social and Business – are available, with tailor-made versions such as; Higher Education, Sports clubs, Family, Mates, Creative Studio and Office Network.

Unlike other Web2.0 systems Omnium Software offers a secure and private interface through an invitation only log in, a secure password system, and where content is blocked from search engines.

Originally aimed at enhancing the learning and teaching experience for art and design schools, Omnium Software is a visual based interface, with an emphasis on multimedia. Users can openly customized their interface to suit their individual needs, as well as showcase their photos, create galleries and share media within their network.

Where?

Omnium Software is fully hosted by the company, meaning the software will not take up space on your computer, so anyone can go online and get their network started today.
