KIRKLAND, Wash., -/February 24, 2006 - Wi-Fi Technology News/- A leading Seattle area software development specialist has relaunched operations under a new name, iNetOffice Inc. Formerly known as ForwardCenter, iNetOffice concentrates on development of online office applications.

?Our new name captures our focus as creators of applications for the Web,? said Tom Snyder, founder and principal of iNetOffice. ?As online functionality becomes even more critical to both commerce and consumers, we intend to be on the leading edge, offering clients hosted apps with desktop-like speed and functionality.?

iNetOffice?s keystone product is iNetWord, a powerful new browser-based online editor that allows users to create and update documents of all types, and then publish them to the web with a single click. Unlike expensive desktop programs that require purchasing, installation and training to successfully deploy, iNetWord is intuitive, easy-to-learn and familiar to users of the most popular desktop editing programs.

iNetWord runs immediately as a user visits a site, Snyder noted. There is no downloading, no installing and no configuration or other barriers. ?Users begin using the program without even realizing it,? he said.

As part of iNetWord?s introduction to the online community, iNetOffice will serve as one of the Gold Sponsors of the O?Reilly Emerging Technology Conference in San Diego March 6 to 9. The other Gold Sponsors are Yahoo!, ebay Developer?s Program and sxip. For five years ETECH has identified new networked innovations before they hit the mainstream.
