What's in a name?

Selah means that we should pause and reflect on what has been said. That definition fits nicely with the potential of the initial technologies we have licensed as well as with how Selah will conduct business.
(The word Selah occurs seventy-one times in thirty-nine of the Psalms, and three times in Habakkuk 3. For more information on the definition of Selah click here.)
