Cool C for Groups and Organizations:
Besides being fun and useful for individual computer users, Cool C provides organizations with a unique platform to deliver information and viewpoints directly to computer users in a very high impact way" said John Brodie, V.P. Cool C Broadcast Marketing. With over 150 million Americans on-line each day, computers and the Internet are becoming central to delivering messages for political campaigners and product marketers. Cool C is not quite as good as the talking computers in StarTrek yet but, this program represents a state-of-the-art step in that direction" said Brodie, a former V.P. with the Westwood One Companies and one of the founding partners of Cool Conversations, L.L.C. Cool Cs networking capabilities are tied to its ability to function as a receiver for broadcast information. Messages are delivered directly to the PC of this "closed'" group of users controlled by the broadcaster. Cool C will automatically search for messages anytime a user's computer connects to the Internet. When a message is received by Cool C, a box will appear asking the user if they want to hear the message. Clicking on the box will open the main program window, which will deliver the message verbally and provide scrolling text. The window can be customized to include advertising or sponsorship graphics with links to the web.

The John Kerry for President Cool C Special Edition is identical to the generic version of the program available at www.CoolConversations.com with the following exceptions: first, the conversation database deals exclusively with Kerry issues and positions and second, specific broadcast messages are delivered to this unique group of users.
