Netsticker makes it easier to surf the Internet by introducing the new concept of "drag and drop" information containing graphic bookmarks in a program that also helps companies reduce info stress.

Netsticker Technologies has released version 1.0 of its Netsticker software. Netsticker runs under Windows 95/98/ME/2000/NT/XP and introduces drag and droppable graphic bookmarks with information handling capabilities, as well as a solution to the ever growing information stress that is generated through today's abundance of e-mail communication. Netsticker also helps users with password handling, doubles as an innovative MP3 player - where the Netsticker actually acts as a graphic cover with the different songs integrated into it. Netsticker also gives you dynamic refreshing of web browser windows, drag and drop of personal and address information to web based forms, automatic closing of annoying pop-up windows and lets you intelligently share Netsticker collections with friends through a built-in e-mail transmission system. Netsticker acts as a browser helper that interacts with both Internet Explorer and various e-mail systems.

"Netsticker is really easy to use since you may now associate a certain site with that site's graphic signature. It can be based on a logotype or a picture of a product. Netsticker really makes the Internet a lot easier to surf both for the computer illiterate, elderly and children, as well as people who are used to working with computers" said Anders Sultan, Vice President of marketing at Netsticker Technologies. "To launch that specific site, all the user has to do now is to double-click the Netsticker that graphically depicts that site. It cannot get any easier than that!".

Many organizations now recognize the added stress that an abundance of incoming e-mail communication puts on both the individual as well as the organization. Some companies have even started to ban e-mail communication in favor of face to face meetings or phone calls. Instead of communicating non-essential information via e-mail channels, you may now use Netsticker's new intelligent way of communicating non-essential information to the people working in the company. By utilizing Netsticker's "Auto Surf" functionality you may have Netsticker visit certain web pages, in essence just like a web based slide show. These pages may communicate information of lesser importance, information that can be good to know about, but not essential. This information can be digested during short pauses, while opening the mail, stretching, speaking on the phone etc. This frees the e-mail channel for important "need to know" type of information. This way Netsticker can help streamline the organization and get more done during office hours.

Web sites may now publish their official Netsticker on their home page. Visitors may then drag and drop this Netsticker to their Netsticker software and apart from a graphic bookmark get all contact information imaginable; www address, e-mail address, address, telephone and fax numbers, a list of employees with telephone and e-mail to all of them, a link list featuring web links within the company, a map showing the geographic location etc... The Netsticker may also hold attachments in the form of letters, sounds (maybe a greeting), and even movies. A Netsticker really helps communicate any contact information a company would like to share with web visitors. Netsticker collects these Netstickers into collections that can be viewed graphically in scrollable preview windows. To go to a certain site, all the user has to do is double-click the corresponding Netsticker.

Netsticker costs $29,95 and is available from Netsticker Technologies, Box 5, SE-240 32, Flyinge, Sweden.
