Netscape Communications Corp. CEO Jim Barksdale showed off some upcoming features of Netcenter that he said would make it the No. 1 portal site by the year 2000. He said businesses could use the feature to create public or private portals to provide information to partners and customers. Among the things Barksdale showed off were features that will be added to My Netscape in the coming months. The new features will let people send and receive e-mail from any computer by simply logging on to their personalized site.
Users can also send a message directly from their address book simply by clicking on a name.
In addition, Barksdale predicted the Web would evolve from a few major portals into hundreds of customized portals. Inc. Netscape Communications Corp. Microsoft Corp.
