NetBadge from Reiters,
I was originally thinking about document storage banks where companies or individuals would put important electronic information as an application of Netbadge. I do not think ampex has any plans to start a document bank even though I think they are uniquely qualified to do so. A description of Netbadge is listed below taken from reiter's site when it was still available.

The real power of NetBadge is that it taps the power and speed of an Intranet. An Intranet web site has many advantages over a traditional client/server-based program. All of the system files and pages exist on a web/file server and are accessed via a standard web browser. To the end user these pages act like a program, but the system administrator does not have all the hassles and configuration difficulties associated with a client/server application.
An Intranet web-based application also has the advantage of speed and efficiency, less data needs to be sent across the network. Best of all, if you didn't previously have an Intranet you will have one with NetBadge, which you could also use for your company as a basis for tasks such as document imaging/sharing, e-mail, meeting notifications, scheduling, publications, etc.. You could also extend it to Internet access, with appropriate security precautions.

It seems somewhat peculiar that it is no longer listed at Reiters site.
