Think The Internet Stinks? Try This

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - If you think the Internet is in your face already, you haven't smelled anything yet.

In a high-tech twist on the old ''scratch-and-sniff'' concept, a new company announced plans Wednesday to bring smells to
the Internet with ''scent'' software and a plug-in device that buffets Web surfers with ''Smell-O-Vision.''

Never mind that ''Aroma-Rama'' and its smelly ilk crashed and burned in American movie theaters in the 1950s. In an era
when the Internet increasingly dominates the sights and sounds of entertainment, can smell be far behind? Not according to
the founders of DigiScents, Inc.

''If we can find out the essence of a biological smell and make a profile of that smell, we should be able to digitize it and
broadcast it,'' DigiScents President Dexster Smith told Reuters in an interview.

''We really feel we are in the ground floor of a new industry and art form. It is going to span a number of areas,
entertainment, e-commerce, advertising and education.''
