AOL Members Can Personalize Their Online Experience with Color Photos and
Video

Vienna, VA--May 16, 1996-- America Online and Connectix today announced a
marketing and technology alliance that enables AOL members to customize
their online experience with digital photographs and video. America Online
will make the Connectix Color QuickCam digital video camera available for
sale online in the AOL Store, and Connectix will integrate AOL e-mail and
other capabilities into the Connectix Color QuickCam software.

AOL members can communicate visually by using the Connectix Color QuickCam
to take pictures that can be sent via AOL e-mail to friends and family
members. This feature is available to both Windows and Mac users, and
future software upgrades will be available through the Connectix Online
area on AOL (Keyword: Connectix). AOL and Connectix will work together to
link QuickCam color digital video pictures with other capabilities later
this year.

"The Connectix QuickCam integration with America Online is another success
story for the AOL Developers Studio, our partnership program which brings
new products that enhance the online experience to our members," said Ted
Leonsis, president of the America Online Services Company. "Now AOL
families can stay in touch with AOL e-mail delivery of QuickCam pictures,
movies, and electronic greeting cards."

"The Connectix QuickCam is already the most popular digital camera for
personal computers as well as the most popular camera on the Net," said
Roy McDonald, CEO of Connectix Corp. "Integrating AOL e-mail into our
Color QuickCam software makes the world of visual online communications
easier for AOL members."

The new Connectix QuickCam color digital video camera is available in the
America Online Store (Keyword: AOLSTORE). In an exclusive offering for
America Online users, members can purchase their color cameras at a
