<title>EasyAsk Provides an Answer Engine for Business</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-19127" title="EasyAsk" src="http://semanticweb.com/files/2011/04/EasyAsk.png" alt="" />A new <a href="http://www.kmworld.com/Articles/News/News-Analysis/Cut-loose-with-semantics-and-NLP-74476.aspx">article</a> takes a look at EasyAsk, a company purchased by Progress Software in 2005 that has fallen off the radar in recent years. According to the writer, “I learned a few months ago that <a href="http://easyask.com/">EasyAsk</a> is very much alive, and it is growing rapidly. The new owner is a successful software entrepreneur, Craig Bassin, who orchestrated the spin out of EasyAsk from Progress Software. When I met with Bassin, I asked him for a one-sentence description of the ‘new’ EasyAsk. He replied, ‘I’d describe it as follows: You ask EasyAsk questions the exact same way you’d ask it of your VP of sales or CFO.’” <a href="http://semanticweb.com/easyask-provides-an-answer-engine-for-business_b19126#more-19126" class="more-link">continued&#8230;</a></p>
