NetObjects Fusion 3.0, which includes over 150 new features and enhancements, made its debut at Internet Showcase 1998 to an overwhelmingly positive response from show attendees.

"When I select the 'Best of Internet Showcase' award winners, I look at the best overall product demonstrations as well as the product's potential to change the way we use the Internet," said Coursey. "NetObjects Fusion 3.0 has the potential to be one of those products that fundamentally affects the industry as a whole, and I am very pleased that NetObjects chose to unveil it during Internet Showcase. This award recognizes the quality of the demonstration, the importance of the product itself, and the product's overall performance. NetObjects excelled in all of those areas."

NetObjects Fusion 3.0, expected to ship in March 1998, offers site builders an open site-building environment, providing unparalleled flexibility and choice to easily layout pages, control and edit HTML code, add DHTML-based interactivity and animation, publish for different browsers, and integrate sites with existing databases and commerce applications.

"Receiving the Internet Showcase award demonstrates that NetObjects Fusion 3.0 has come roaring out of the gate to fulfill Web site builders' evolving needs for innovation and ease-of-use," said David Kleinberg, NetObjects' executive vice president, products. "It's heartening to be rewarded for keeping our finger on the pulse of Web site builders and consistently delivering best-of-breed software."
