The newly launched MonsterDiesel.com enables users to quickly and easily purchase products online, while the social networking sites will be utilized as a means to invite conversation on the company's ongoing alternative energy product innovations.

When asked why a company which produces an alternative diesel fuel additive is becoming so involved with interactive and social networking utilities, CEO and President, Mathew Zuckerman, Ph.D. said, "New energy is topic that needs to be on everyone's radar. We have created a platform for users to learn more about the future of energy, and discuss it openly."

With Monster Diesel(TM) announcing new product innovations all the time, the company is surely one to follow. Executives say they plan to announce breaking developments in real time "tweets" to their Twitter followers.

According to the Energy Information Administration's International Energy Outlook 2008, the world "will require 50% more energy in 2030 than it did in 2005... almost all of which will be derived from synthetic and bio fuel sources." Alkane's proprietary synthetic-fuel products will surely play an integral role in this transformation.

"We have been saying that Monster Diesel(TM) will be at the forefront of the energy revolution. I think this move to an interactive frontier plays an integral part in the fulfillment of that," Zuckerman went on to say. "This is a way to engage our various audiences. We are speaking to our knowledge hungry base, utilizing interactive tools to encourage discussion on timely and pertinent matters that impact the future of the energy landscape."
