NEW MOBILE PUBLISHING SOLUTION REVEALED AT THE U.N. IN GENEVA
‘LIFE CUBE’ Meets Emergency Needs with QuietGuide®
May 6, 2011 -- In a fortunate stroke of marketing and goodwill, QuietGuide® (QG) has been selected by
Life Cube Inc. to demonstrate a revolutionary new offering that delivers text-and-image publications to
mobile users. For the first time, an important humanitarian use for the QG process will be demonstrated
this week in the perfect setting; the premiere emergency preparedness conference at the United Nations in
Geneva. Creating and distributing text-and-image publications to mobile users, QG enables multiple
authors in any location to create, edit, upload, distribute and sell graphic-rich eBooks and training
documents.
With QuietGuide® the graphics are easily embedded and formatted with text, without the well-known
complications of desktop word processing applications. The QG process allows multi-user editing with
authorization controls, and displays the results in mobile-friendly formats that seamlessly upload for viewing
on all smartphones, tablets, computers - any device with a pdf reader. For self-published authors, QG
documents allow the user to upload their publications, and to create individualized sales promotions without
the responsibility of managing their own e-commerce business processes.
QuietGuide® is web-based and being used by authors around the world. The technology is a breakthrough
for the creation of storyboards for video production, and the creation, editing, distribution, and sales
tracking of eBooks. The process is also being applied to corporate documentation, medical procedure
descriptions, technician repair guides and student and user training documents.
This capability - to receive text and graphics and automatically create downloadable documents - is what
attracted Life Cube founder/inventor Michael Conner to QuietGuide®. His inflatable emergency shelter is a
unique hybrid of delivery box and rugged, reliable instant housing. Now the Life Cube deployment is
documented in QG format, so anyone, anywhere, can download the instructions and inflate the shelter in 5
minutes, without prior experience. The Life Cube and its QG “instruction booklet” are receiving enthusiastic
responses from governments and independent aid organizations world-wide.

“This kind of partnership is what makes being in business most rewarding!” says Marie Profant, CEO of
Virtual Publishing Solutions which created QuietGuide®. “When Michael Conner approached us, we had
never envisioned the QuietGuide® potential for changing the lives of suffering, homeless victims of
disasters. This is a use for our product that has brought a refreshing new dimension to our mission. We are
honored to be able to assist with this immensely important project.”
The “Life Cube” has become not only a great demonstration tool for QG, but an embodiment of their desire
to provide easy solutions for tough situations. Representatives from QG and Life Cube Inc. will be in
Geneva this week for demonstrations at the United Nations conference on emergency preparedness. For
