Computer Support Blog

Two of the most common uses for the web are getting news and finding entertaining content.  Most people bookmark sites and use search engines to find the content they want to consume.  However, cool person in technology Dan Olsen believes it can be even easier to for people to find content on the web.  Olsen refers to his company YourVersion’s main product as a “discovery engine”, which detects a person’s preferences and interests in order to deliver them new content every day automatically.  YourVersion uses two methods to find content that users will enjoy on the Internet: bookmarks and interest tags.  Users can add interests to their profile manually and YourVersion will find content related to those interests.  However, YourVersion also supports website bookmarking and any sites that a user bookmarks for later use on YourVersion also inform the product when it retrieves new content for the user.  People who have trouble signing up for Olsen’s service online can get assistance from a home tech support company.

Olsen’s service works through several different platforms.  For browsing on their desktop or laptop, users can install a YourVersion extension for the Chrome web browser.  They can also log in to the main YourVersion website in order to access the content that Olsen’s company has collected for them.  People who prefer to consume web content on mobile devices can also take advantage of Olsen’s product.  There are YourVersion apps available on both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.  Anyone who has trouble downloading these applications to use their YourVersion accounts on their smartphones should contact Apple support or Android support.

Olsen has a long history of working for major companies in the tech industry.  He began his career in technology working at Intuit in the late 1990’s.  He ascended to the level of group product manager for the Quicken software while he was there.  This cool person would then join Friendster while it was still a major player in 2004, spending a year as the senior director of product.  Olsen left and eventually founded YourVersion in 2007, building the company slowly to get to the level it is at today.  Olsen’s extensive experience working on software and technology products have likely been key in the development of YourVersion into a successful service for consumers.
