Friend, An 11 21 95 Reuter Information Service newsstory, headed Computer illiterates offered new way onto Internet [OR: Junk mail wants to meet computer illiterate for safe sale] reports: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co said on Tuesday it had developed a way of accessing the Internet using the fam- iliar telephone and fax machine.... With the Matsushita system, users can obtain an index via a facsimile machine and choose Internet subjects they are interested in by keying in numbers on their tele- phones.... The telephone and fax are connected to server comput- ers.... Information coming back arrives as ordinary sound over the telephone handset or as printed text off the facsimile. AT&T was offering an index of newsstories in a series of ads in the Wall Street Journal a couple of years ago. You faxed the code numbers of the stories you wanted to read to AT&T; and AT&T faxed back the stories. FIRST RULE OF JUNK MAIL If you can sell it to the elite, you can sell it to the masses.
