What will be covered at the seminar?
------------------------------------

The primary goal of this seminar is to provide an overview of the 
Internet, focusing on how its resources can increase your business' 
productivity and efficiency.

The most valuable commodity in any business is information; specifically,
the sharing and accessibility of that information.  The importance of the
Internet is virtually _instantaneous_ information transfer.  This, coupled
with the Internet's global presence, provides an unprecedented means of
telecommunication. 

The Internet provides a fast, efficient means of information sharing -
between your business and the world. 

Our seminar will show how you can use Email, Gopher, Telnet, FTP, the
UseNet, WAIS, World Wide Web, and countless other Internet services to
your business' advantage. 

Demonstrations:  We will give live, online demonstrations of the services
mentioned above, as well as go over the features and benefits of each one.

Internet Access:  Most Internet users have access through their
governmental or educational facilities.  As demand for Internet access has
increased, a number of Internet providers have been established that offer
full Internet access to businesses and individuals. 

One of the fastest growing Internet providers in the Metro area, Digital
Express Group, Inc. (Digex) will be represented at the seminar to describe
the various levels of connectivity services available.  Attendees will
have the opportunity to obtain Internet access at special rates. 

Other:  Attendees will also have the opportunity to purchase Internet
related publications from O'Reilly and Associates, one of the finest
publishers of Internet related literature.

Everything you need to make the Internet work for you and your business
will be available at the seminar.
                          _______________________



What is the Internet?
---------------------

The Internet is an interconnection of local area network systems in use at
most major educational, scientific, and government institutions.  In recent
years, many commercial organizations have connected to the Internet as
well. The Internet is the world's largest wide area network.

Networking provides a means of high speed data transfer between locations.
The Internet provides virtually instantaneous communication and data
transfer to its users.  Furthermore, it offers an invaluable resource of
information and data on any topic. The Internet's information archives are
freely and easily available to anyone with access. 

Your business can make use of this invaluable resource in a variety of
ways.  Not only does the Internet put its worldwide users in direct
accessibility to your business, but also provides your business a means of
high speed telecommunication between locations.

This seminar will show you how you can put the Internet to work for you and
your business, as well as give you the opportunity to get Internet access 
and literature at special rates.

"Why does this magnificent applied science which saves work and makes life
easier bring us so little happiness?  The simple answer runs:  because we
have not yet learned to make sensible use of it."
