Your Zona Personality Assessment System Targets China

TACOMA, Wash. - May 14, 2004- Panspective, Inc. announces a Chinese version of its popular Your Zona personality assessment system. The system, now in Simplified Chinese allows Internet users in Mainland China to experience Your Zona in their native language.

According to the Pew Internet and American Life Project China is estimated to have 79.5 million Internet users. That places China third in the number of Internet users per country, trailing only the United States (126 million) and Japan (100 million). China's current user base represents less than 10 percent of its 1.2 billion person population. "If you are looking at a 10- to 15-year time frame, I would say China and India are probably going to account for half of all Internet usage in the world," Frost & Sullivan senior analyst Mukul Krishna said. "Just the sheer number of people who can be connected, it's mind-boggling."

The latest version of the personality assessment system allows Chinese speakers to take the Zona test and receive universal advice on compatibility. Your Zona makes international and/or multilingual personality matching simple. For example, a Chinese speaker may learn that he/she is most compatible with the zona, Water 4 that user can then search for a suitable match in another language or country.

"China represents a huge opportunity for us." states Panspective CEO, Louis Frank. "This Chinese version of the Your Zona System is just another step towards a personality standard not only just for the US market but for the global market as well."
