<p>Radio UserLand brings powerful Internet publishing to desktop users</p>
<p>New software brings the publishing power of centralized Internet servers to<br />
Windows and Macintosh desktop systems. Microsoft collaboration continues to<br />
deliver results for Web users.</p>
<p>MILLBRAE, Calif., Mar. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- UserLand Software announced the<br />
release of Radio UserLand, software that brings, for the first time, the<br />
power of Web Services and XML to the personal computer desktop.</p>
<p>"Radio is a turning point for the Internet," said Dave Winer, CEO of<br />
UserLand Software. "It provides information distribution power that was<br />
previously centralized on services like Yahoo and eBay. Radio is as<br />
familiar and easy to use as the popular websites, and since the software is<br />
running on the user's desktop, it offers unprecedented performance and<br />
security. Having control of your data means that you can easily switch to<br />
new services, and your data is safe on your computer under your control."</p>
<p>UserLand is working with Microsoft and others to facilitate both XML-based<br />
interoperability conventions and a new generation of Web Services built on<br />
those standards.</p>
<p>"Radio UserLand is at the sweet spot of the next generation of the<br />
Internet, bringing together XML-based web services, a decentralized<br />
approach to computing and the power of software," said Charles Fitzgerald,<br />
director of business strategy in the platform strategy group at Microsoft.<br />
"This next generation of the Internet promises more control for end users<br />
and renewed opportunity for developers."</p>
<p>Radio is a powerful news publishing and routing tool that runs on the<br />
desktop, patterned after the easy to use "weblog" concept pioneered by<br />
UserLand, and supports web services protocols such as SOAP and XML-RPC,<br />
co-developed by Microsoft, Developmentor, IBM and the open source<br />
development community.</p>
<p>Radio comes with a built-in XML-based application that streams news from<br />
authoritative publications such as Red Herring, Wired News, Salon, CNN,<br />
Reuters, the San Jose Mercury-News, Motley Fool, Internet.Com, and from<br />
news sites such as Tomalak's Realm, AppleSurf, Slashdot.Org, XML.Com,<br />
Freshmeat and Scripting News. Thousands of compatible XML-based news feeds<br />
are available in RSS format, co-developed by UserLand and Netscape.</p>
<p>Glenn Fleishman, freelance reporter for the New York Times, Fortune, Wired<br />
and The Seattle Times, said "I've installed Radio UserLand and I'm already<br />
blown away. I feel like I've entered an entirely new world. This is akin to<br />
running Mozilla back in April 1994. Wow."</p>
<p>Radio UserLand is available for free download at<br />
<a href="http://radio.userland.com/" title="http://radio.userland.com/">http://radio.userland.com/</a>. A subsequent version to be released in Q3 2001<br />
will be available as a commercial product.</p>
<p>UserLand Software, <a href="http://www.userland.com/" title="http://www.userland.com/">http://www.userland.com/</a>, incorporated in 1988, is<br />
turning the Web into an easy to use writing environment with Frontier,<br />
high-end content management software that can host thousands of dynamic<br />
multi-author websites; Manila, a browser-based content management<br />
application; and Radio UserLand a desktop web application server. UserLand<br />
is also active in standards processes relating to distributed computing, in<br />
partnership with Microsoft, IBM, Developmentor and Netscape, and is a<br />
member of the World Wide Web Consortium. UserLand is a privately held<br />
company based in Millbrae, CA.</p>
