Did you loose this in your Mail Crash?



Dave,
this weekend we are having a BBQ where we will launch our private Beta of Hyperwords™. If anyone from the esteemed IP list would like to come, they can email me frode@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx <ailto:frode@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx%22> and I will make my best to accommodate. Right now there is some space left, but not a lot.

The Pitch: Today we can navigate the web through the routes others have chosen for us: web-links. With Hyperwords™ you can navigate any way you want - all the words are interactive. You can point to any word on any web page and choose to look it up in Wikipedia, a dictionary, do a Google search on it, or perhaps a Yahoo search. You can translate it into different languages. All with a single click. And there is much more to come.

Hyperwords™ will initially be available as a Firefox plug-in and soon after as an Internet Explorer plug-in.

There will be a short demo on Saturday, a really short presentation and quite lengthy time to chill and chat.

What:      Launch of the Private Beta of Hyperwords™.
When:     19th of November 2005 at 6pm. Demo at 6:30!
Where: Doug Engelbart's house. 89 Catalpa, Atherton CA 94027, USA. Yum? Yes, BBQ and drinks. Map: http://maps.google.com/maps?oi=p&q‰+Catalpa,+Atherton,+CA+94027 <ttp://maps.google.com/maps?oi=map&q%89+Catalpa,+Atherton,+CA+94027%22>
