Dear Website Keeper:

I was writing to see if you would add our website URL
(http://www.tstradio.com) to your list of Web sites (hot, interesting or
otherwise). And, if you would not object, we would like to return the favor
and add a link at our site pointing to your web pages.

Why?
----
Right now, we are in the process of trying to build a cooperative "network"
of Web sites that cater to audiences we have in common. All the participants
in our co-op network will benefit by an overall increase in the number of
visitors to each site.

Given that it's in most people's nature to follow tangents anyway, as word
gets out and our sites become more heavily trafficked, everyone's chances of
being found by the millions of curious browsers (via our co-op links) will
increase dramatically; it's clearly a win-win situation, especially since it
won't cost either of us anything to do it. Of course, once they get to our
sites, it's then up to us to keep them there. ; )

Who We Are
----------
To give you an idea of who we are and where we are coming from, our boss,
Edward L. Taylor, is the man behind the launch of Ted Turner and cable
Superstation WTBS (parent company of CNN). Taylor Subscription Talk (audio
on demand), that's us, was recently featured on the front of the Life
section of USA Today and we will appear in the December Issue of Wired
Magazine. Our service has also been nominated for a Dvorak Internet Award.

What We Do
----------
We are one of the first Web sites on the Internet providing real time audio
(talk oriented) programming on demand with more than 1800 hours of
ALTERNATIVE programming choices online right now, with lots of new
programming added each week. In short, we offer something for everyone.

Taylor Subscription Talk's Internet audio-on-demand service (TST-On-Demand)
provides programming on health care issues, as well as programs devoted to
politics, sports, how-to and special interest topics. All are available
24-hours a day at the listener's convenience.

FOR *IMMEDIATE* RELEASE (please help spread the word)
-----------------------
Now, for the first time anywhere on the Internet, we will be broadcasting
LIVE an event of great importance to everyone, that being the World AIDS Day
Forum hosted by the Harvard AIDS Institute. The theme of this forum is: HIV
can be stopped. The program airs on the Internet only on December 1, 10:00
AM to noon Eastern Time (US). It will also be available on-demand afterwards
for those who miss it.

This program contains vital information that can only be accessed via TST's
On Demand service (http://www.tstradio.com). We are rapidly running out of
time, and you're help will be critical to getting this information out to
those who will benefit the most.

Upcoming
--------
With Campaign '96 gearing up, our political programming will be of
particular interest to everyone who just can't get enough of politics.

What does it take?
------------------
Listeners will need a soundcard-equipped PC or Macintosh (preferably 16-bit
sound) and at least a 14.4 Kbps modem or a dedicated Internet connection, in
addition to a piece of free software, called RealAudio, that enables your
computer to receive audio signals through your Web browser, like a radio.
The RealAudio software can be downloaded from our site.

Thanks for your help.
