Developer’s Description

By Taro Software
Post emergency messages to bulletin boards that pop up on users' screens
From the developer: "Taro Software's Lannouncement bulletin board system (BBS) lets you post emergency must-read messages that automatically appear to the LAN user on login or pops-up no matter what application they are in! Lannouncement also functions as a complete bulletin board and discussion group application for your local area network. Developed to be network independent, our software will install transparently and execute on Microsoft Windows NT, Banyan Vines, and Novell Netware networks. Supports file attachments, multiple fonts, and unlimited topic sizes (no more 64K limits).

"New version - now works on 32 bit network drivers and Windows 95/98/2000. Lannouncement is the electronic equivalent of a bulletin board. Lannouncement is designed to allow people in your organization to post bulletins, distribute documents or other files, and engage in on-line discussions. It is a 'groupware' product. People post messages to the board so that others may select and view them. Users can elect to print the message or save attachments associated to the message. You may join in a public dialog with other Lannouncement users regarding a message or initiate your own discussion."
