InfoSeek is a new and unique "all-in-one" search service that allows users to
conduct high-speed searches of the World Wide Web. Launched in February of
this year, InfoSeek now has 30,000 subscribers and handles more than 300,000
queries a day.
Kirsch will demonstrate how to locate specific World Wide Web pages in
seconds, learn what people on the Internet are saying about a particular
company or product, and find answers to common, everyday questions such as,
"what is the proper temperature to brew coffee?" In addition, he will talk
about the InfoSeek service and how it was developed.
Steve Kirsch founded InfoSeek in January 1994 and currently serves as
president, chief executive officer and chairman of the board. Before founding
InfoSeek, he was a co-founder of Frame Technology, and served in various
management positions. He invented the optical mouse, obtained two U.S.
patents on mouse technology, and founded Mouse Systems Corporation in 1982.
He has B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering and computer science
from MIT.
