EVERYONE.NET,
FIRST TO TIGHTLY INTEGRATE DISCUSSION BOARDS WITH CHAT
Everyone.net Enhanced Their Product Offering by Improving Their Hosted Discussion
Boards and Adding Chat, Which will Help Vertical Portals Grow by Taking
Traffic from Horizontal Portals.
San Jose, CA — January 26, 2000 — Everyone.net launched a new version of
Plug-in-Community™ today at Upside Showcase in Palm Springs. They improved
their discussion boards and added chat to offer webmasters interactive communities
that can scale to accommodate massive content. This new offering allows
Web sites to add their own customized chat rooms in minutes.
Webmasters can add boards and chat on any relevant topic, enabling them
to enhance their site with content that is relevant and dynamic. The integrated
login feature makes it easy for users to switch between chat and discussion
boards. Chat includes content filters, private chat, and several safeguards
against disruptive behavior. Like Plug-in-Email™ and Plug-in-Search™,
chat is free, customizable, and is hosted on the same robust and reliable
network.
"We added chat to Plug-in-Community so our partners can create Web
communities where visitors interact and really get involved." said
Kenneth Chan, CEO and Chairman of Everyone.net. "We are helping vertical
portals build traffic and dominate the Web. We are playing a major role
in the current trend where vertical portals are taking traffic from the
large general-interest portals."
Everyone.net is the first integrated network of vertical portals and has
helped tens of thousands of niche market Web sites become professional high-traffic
vertical portals. Each of these vertical portals offer more specialized
content to their respective niche markets than general-interest horizontal
portals, like Yahoo and Excite, fueling an online revolution that may eventually
make horizontal portals obsolete.
