Subject: Friends of Time extends QuickTime community web services
Friends of Time, the on-line home for the extended QuickTime community is
enhancing its web site (http://www.friendsoftime.org) with new capabilities
to help bring the community together.
Message Boards
Friends of Time now provides public message boards which provide a place
for QuickTime related news, events, product announcements, and job
listings. The job listings feature will solve a long standing challenge for
companies seeking to build QuickTime-compatible products by allowing those
companies to directly post their job listings. There’s also a place for
consultants with QuickTime skills to list their services.

People Connection
Friends of Time has identified nearly 1000 individuals who have contributed
to the success of QuickTime since work quietly began at Apple in 1990. To
facilitate communication and re-connecting with old friends, Friends of
Time has introduced a connection service enabling community members to send
mail to other community members. This unique capability ensures that the
community member’s email address is only disclosed to those that they
choose.
