A New Paradigm for Today's Wired World Enfish Tracker Pro -- the World's First Information Tracker!(tm) -- is a totally new paradigm for dealing with information in today's overloaded, Internet-driven work world. It gives you one place where you can automatically organize, find and keep track of almost anything -- no matter if it's located on the Internet, your hard drive, the network or your e-mail in-box. It automatically "reads" and organizes everything as soon as it arrives according to the topics and projects that are important to you -- and gives you instant access to anything in seconds using simple keyword searches. "Every minute of every day we're bombarded with so much information that it seems impossible to separate the useful from the useless and the good from the bad," says Louise Wannier, CEO and founder of Enfish Technology Inc. "Enfish Tracker Pro helps you find relevant information, immediately and automatically." Trackers: A Quantum Leap Beyond Ordinary Folders The key concept behind Enfish Tracker Pro is the "Tracker" - a new, dynamic way to automatically organize and instantly locate your information. A Tracker is like a personal assistant that automatically monitors all of your information sources, "reads" new information as it arrives, organizes it in all the right places and alerts you to what's new. A Tracker can automatically prioritize documents and email, find new or missing information, or even to do research and find things on the Web. Instead of manually dragging icons into file folders, or manually searching for information, you just set up a Tracker in advance using the Enfish Tracker Wizard. Simply specify words, phrases and instructions that tell the Tracker what you're looking for. The Tracker constantly "watches" for new information that matches your personal interests in the documents, e-mail, newsletters, Intranet and Internet Web sites you choose to monitor. That way you always have the latest information without having to find it yourself. With Trackers, you don't need to remember file names and drive locations when you want to find something. Finding something in seconds with a Tracker is as simple as using a search engine. Just search for any word, number or phrase. Trackers are "virtual" -- they just point to the information, they never physically move it. Thus, Trackers can "hold" almost any document no matter if it's physically stored on your hard drive -- or it's halfway around the world on a Web site. System Requirements Enfish Tracker Pro requires a compatible PC (Pentium 166 or higher recommended) running Windows 95, 98 or NT 4.0; 16 MB RAM (32 recommended, 64 optimal), a hard drive with 50 MB free disk space, 256 colors VGA or higher display card/monitor. Internet connectivity is recommended. About Enfish Technology Privately-held Enfish(R) was founded in 1993 to create world-class software that will make information easier to use. The name Enfish is an acronym that stands for Enter, Find and Share -- describing the ways in which people interact with information. Copyright 1998, Business Wire
