Softchaos previews new Webstractor features at Macworld San Francisco New features enhance internet browsing by enabling multiple web page monitoring, keyword monitoring and data collation Softchaos, a provider of productivity enhancing software for the professional and intensive Macintosh user, today announces that it will be previewing Webstractor at Macworld San Francisco at booth 710. Webstractor 1.5 adds a personal web robot, allowing users to catch up with interests in their own time and at their own convenience. Reza Farhad, CEO, Softchaos, says: "Technology innovation and implementation moves at an incredible rate, yet the way that we use the internet has remained static, one page at a time. Webstractor changes this and enables us to monitor multiple pages and keywords simultaneously, but more importantly it lets us format and collate this plethora of information. Webstractor revolutionised the way that Mac users browse the web. Webstractor 1.5 builds on this functionality by adding an advanced feature set." New 1.5 features Webstractor 1.5 offers a whole new set of controls and capabilities. Users can now monitor a web page for updates and automatically capture it into their Webstractor document when a change occurs - or perhaps only when matching keywords are detected. For example, Mac users can monitor a number of sports pages for when their favourite team is mentioned. When Webstractor notices an updated web page with a reference to the team, it will capture a 'snapshot' of the web page and add it to the Webstractor document. Even if the website subsequently changes before surfers have had a chance to look at it, the information won't be lost. About Webstractor Webstractor allows users to easily capture and create a document from multiple web pages and edit it as simply as if using a standard word processor. No technical knowledge is required. Students, teachers, researchers, hobbyists - anyone who uses the internet to gather information - can: automatically capture web pages as they browse visually navigate using thumbnails re-order the browsed content browse a no-nonsense list of links and automate the capture of multiple pages instantaneously search pages visited keep multiple captures of the same page over time edit pages crop to keep the content needed format content for the printed page add content from the hard drive compose a document from different Web pages with a table of contents share findings System requirements Mac only PowerPC G4/800 processor and higher 256 MB of RAM Mac OS X 10.3.x and higher Pricing and availability Webstractor 1.5 will be available in the first quarter of 2005.
