BDi Software™
was established in 1999 to create educational products that do
more than entertain. The majority of software classified as "edutainment"
has very little educational value. Parents and teachers have expressed
a need for software that teaches fundamental skills and reinforces
the concepts learned at school and at home.
BDiSoftware.net™
was established in 2003 as the web hosting services division of
BDi Software. This site offers inexpensive web and e-mail solutions
for small businesses, schools and individuals.
