| Source: Hearst Business Media
UNIONDALE, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- February 27, 2007 -- Hearst Electronics Group, the largest
publisher of product information to the electronics industry, along with
Silicon Expert today announced the upgrade of ICMaster.com,
www.icmaster.com. To date the site has allowed users to search for
semiconductors and other electronic components by part number, supplier and
product with results displaying datasheets from manufacturers. Effective
immediately, results will now also match to available inventory from the
distributor channel with an RFQ and Buy Now option, and users will be able
to create their own personal parts list, download the ICM toolbar, sign up
for inventory alerts, compare parts and more. All major distributors'
inventories are being featured, including Avnet, Arrow, Digi-Key and Mouser
to name a few.
"This upgrade puts ICMaster in a unique category all by itself vs. other
vertical search engines serving the EOEM. In addition to the tremendous
added value for users, advertisers can now super vertically match their ads
against specific content pertaining to the parts they are selling," said
William Barron, VP Publishing Director, Hearst Electronics Group.
