SANTA CLARA, Calif., Jan. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Softlink, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SFLK) has finalized an agreement with Dallas, Texas-based Matchmaker.com that will enable their subscribers to use Softlink, Inc.'s Voicelink software to post self-introductions and exchange e-mail voice messages through Matchmaker.com's site. Matchmaker.com, one of the world's largest Internet meeting places for unattached singles, is growing by over 250,000 new subscribers each month and currently boasts a membership base of over 2 million. Their site currently allows participants to post written self-introductions, and facilitates responses to those postings via an on-site e-mail system. Matchmaker.com currently provides over 70 million page views per month to participants viewing subscriber postings, which in turn generates in excess of 7 million e-mail responses per month through
the site.
With Softlink, Inc.'s Voicelink e-mail software, Matchmaker.com subscribers will now be able to post self-introductions and exchange e-mail messages using their own voice. All current and new Matchmaker.com subscribers will be provided with a free customized version of Voicelink that can only be used to communicate through Matchmaker.com's site.

the availability of the full version of Voicelink that can be used to send e-mails outside of Matchmaker.com's on-line community. With a press of a button, Matchmaker.com members can purchase and download a fully operating version of the software directly from Matchmaker.com.
Future plans call for the integration of Softlink, Inc.'s Powerlink software into Matchmaker.com's on-line community which will add real-time video and animation capabilities to participant postings and communications. "We are proud to provide Matchmaker.com's large and growing customer base the added dimensions of speech and video to enhance communications between site participants. This agreement is another milestone in establishing Voicelink and Powerlink as new standards for Internet communication.", said Johnson Lee, President
and Co-founder of Softlink, Inc.
Retail sales of Voicelink through the Matchmaker.com site are projected to generate a net profit to Softlink, Inc. of
between $500,000 and $1,000,000 annually.
Softlink, Inc. is currently completing work on a Netscape plug-in, and Active-X version and a MAC version of
their Voicelink software to provide expanded capability with current operating systems and software platforms.
