Netscape Netcaster dynamically delivers intranet and Internet
information to user desktops. With Netcaster, Netscape Communicator
users can subscribe to a content "channel" - a content source much like
a broadcast TV or radio channel - and receive content that they can view
offline. Netcaster's broadcast, or "push," capabilities enable users to
receive constant information updates in the background while they are
working on other tasks.
Try the latest Netcaster preview release now. It will install itself automatically to the final version of
Netscape Communicator via SmartUpdate. See the frequently
asked questions page for more information on Netcaster and the developer's
guide to learn how to create channels.
