O'REILLY & ASSOCIATES RELEASES WEBSITE 1.1

Upgrade Offers Increased Power, Ease of Use

Web Server Software Package Includes Popular HTML Editor, Easy Creation of
Virtual Servers, and Web Printing

January 15, Sebastopol, CA -- O'Reilly & Associates announced today the
release of their 1.1 upgrade to the award-winning WebSite, a 32-bit
multi-threaded World Wide Web server for Windows NT and 95.

WebSite 1.1 includes several outstanding new features.

* HotDog Standard: the highly-rated HTML editor that supports text
formatting, linkbuilding, tables, and forms. It contains an online
tutorial covering its main features.

* Server Side Includes (SSI): enables the user to combine static and
programmed documents on-the-fly, so common document components are easier
to maintain.

* Virtual servers (also known as multihoming or creating multiple home
pages): WebSite users can create literally hundreds of sites using only
one copy of WebSite 1.1. O'Reilly does not charge additional license fees
per site. The new graphical interface for creating virtual servers makes
it easy for users to set multiple IP addresses, assign hostnames and URL
prefixes, and keep track of each identity.

* WebFind: Users can create multiple indexes for their web. This new wizard
lets the user specify Find options available to people searching the
site.

* Common Gateway Interface (CGI): WebSite's well-known CGI, the best Web
server programming tool for most Windows developers, now supports the
Visual Basic 4 framework (CGI32.BAS) with sample applications. This
significantly improves the speed and efficiency of working with
spreadsheets, databases, and other programs.

* WebView: Users can now print a schematic view of their web contents and
links, using the industry's first graphical display tool for webs.

* External imagemaps: WebSite 1.1 supports imagemaps built with other
programs, as well as with WebSite's own imagemap tool.

* Expanded logging capabilities, support for HTML-2, -3, and Netscape
extensions, server-push applications and the new Mosaic 2.1 Web browser.

* Significantly expanded, detailed 400-page book, "Building Your Own
WebSite," with complete documentation of the new features.

* A fully-functional, 60-day downloadable demo will be available from
WebSite Central (http://website.ora.com) soon.

CASE STUDY

Glenn Fincher has been a WebSite 1.0 user and beta tester for WebSite 1.1
in his position as Senior Support Engineer at Intergraph Corporation, a $1
billion company which is the world's largest software developer for
Windows NT. Fincher uses WebSite to manage and maintain an internal site,
the main source of company information on Intergraph's new products.

Fincher says he has used "every NT Web server ever announced. WebSite is
the most robust across the board." Working with the new WebSite 1.1,
Fincher especially likes the addition of SSI. "It gives me an easier
ability to load appropriate HTML fields according to the browser the
person is using. And in general, the performance has increased."

Fincher is working on back-end database applications, such as a message
board application. He is impressed that "the new Windows CGI 1.3 [included
with WebSite 1.1] makes it easier to do Windows CGI."
