SAN CARLOS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE FEATURES)--Feb. 5, 1999--
New era in Internet productivity begins today, enabling users to search, research, download, format and present information in the form of a multi-media slide show - all while running other applications on
the PC desktop;
WebZinger 6.0 is available for immediate electronic purchase at www.unboxed.com or www.webzinger.com for a suggested retail price of
only $44.95.
ImaginOn, Inc. (NASDAQ:IMON) today brings a new level of productivity to the Internet with the on-schedule launch of the world's first all-in-one Supra-Search engine, WebZinger(tm) 6.0, a Java(R) based application software program for Windows(R) based PCs. Versions for the Apple Macintosh(R) and Sun Solaris(R) platforms will be introduced shortly.
Available for immediate electronic purchase at www.unboxed.com or www.webzinger.com for a suggested retail price of $44.95, WebZinger 6.0 incorporates ImaginOn's patent-pending Transformational Database Processing and Playback technology which transforms data from a spatial domain, where objects are arranged in space geometrically, to a temporal domain, where they are arranged in time sequentially. As applied in WebZinger 6.0, the technology results is an all-in-one Web software utility that searches, locates, evaluates, downloads, formats and plays back search results in the form of a multimedia slide show
-- all while the user continues to run other applications on his or her PC desktop.
"WebZinger 6.0 is a breakthrough utility that brings an unprecedented level of productivity to Internet searches," today said David Schwartz, President and Chief Executive Officer of ImaginOn, Inc. "Before this product, Internet users were forced to use many different software programs and search engines, individually visiting Web sites to evaluate their relevance. Once selections were made, users then had to spend a considerable amount of time -- hours in fact
-- downloading and assembling information into a usable report.
"WebZinger 6.0 automates the entire process --freeing the user to be productive with other desktop applications-- and prepares a final 'slide show' format multimedia playback report in about 30 minutes. That's right, 30-minutes -- and without user intervention. What's more, at any time during the playback presentation, the user can go to any selected individual Web site to obtain more information and, then, with a click of a button, return to the presentation where it left off," Schwartz condinued.
What's more, according to ImaginOn Vice President of Technology Len Kain, WebZinger 6.0 features a Fast Mode that enables users to compile an abbreviated WebZinger report in about one minute. "That's nearly as fast as conventional search engines but with superior relevance and actual text extracts from each site."
Fast, efficient and relevant searches are becoming increasingly important to the growing number of individuals, business professionals and students who rely on the Internet for information access and retrieval. WebZinger 6.0 was praised for all three qualities in an advance online review of the product published by PC World on January 27, 1999. According to ImaginOn's Schwartz, the Company is now preparing specialized versions of WebZinger 6.0 for the business and educational market- each incorporating certain browser and interface functions relevant to the application.
People interested in a free trial of WebZinger 6.0 can download a trial version of the program at www.imaginon.com.
