<p>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE</p>
<p>New portal educates ISPs and IS managers by focusing on hot<br />
networking technologies.</p>
<p>Walnet Creek, Calif. -- March 24, 1999 (Xpress Press) - ISPortal.com The<br />
objective source for news and resources announced today that it has<br />
officially been opened to the public to dispense news and resources<br />
focused<br />
on hot internetworking technologies.</p>
<p>The concept behind the ISPortal.com is to deliver news stories, press<br />
releases, white papers, and competitive information pertaining to<br />
only the top 'hot networking technologies' all in one place. This<br />
saves internetworking professionals the time of locating news and<br />
product information on multitudes of sites. ISPortal.com currently<br />
houses a wide range of information on VPN's, CLEC, Outsourcing,<br />
Caching. XDSL, Anti-Spam and Security.</p>
<p>Instead of evaluating products by visiting individual vendor web<br />
sites, ISPortal.com maintains buyers guides that allow people the<br />
opportunity to truly comparison shop and find the perfect solution<br />
for their network . Daily news from around the web and white papers<br />
from multiple vendors make the ISPortal.com the perfect place to do<br />
research for CLEC, xDSL or caching<br />
deployments. Whether researching new technology or looking to<br />
purchase, ISPortal.com is a one-stop shop.</p>
<p>The website <a href="http://www.isportal.com" title="http://www.isportal.com">http://www.isportal.com</a> has been receiving traffic for the past<br />
months from word of mouth spread through newsgroups and Listservs as<br />
well as its network of industry insiders. "The portal has been one<br />
year in the making," says its president Mike Cassidy, "It was a few<br />
notes on a cocktail<br />
napkin and now it's become a resource that people rely on daily to<br />
keep them informed."</p>
<p>"This portal takes the frustration out of being a network manager," says an<br />
anonymous site visitor, "I have been waiting for this for years." The<br />
ISPortal.com team has been in involved in the internetworking<br />
industry for more than 15 years. "It is frustrating to keep up with<br />
constantly changing technology". "We read everything we can get our<br />
hands on so everyone else does not have to."</p>
<p>About ISPortal.com ISPortal.com has been built from the feedback of<br />
vendors, ISPs, and corporate network managers worldwide. Vendors<br />
supply information through sponsorship opportunities that allow for<br />
them to post their white papers, press releases, have their products<br />
included in an interactive buyers guide and even run banner ads. By<br />
following and participating in listservs and newsgroups, the members<br />
of the ISPortal.com team gauge the level of interest and the level of<br />
understanding for every new technology to hit the market place. The<br />
constant interaction and industry knowledge of the ISPortal.com team<br />
allows the site to deliver knowledgeable content in a very timely<br />
manner.</p>
