"YOU'VE GOT MAIL" FROM PAREVNET
SAN JOSE, CA - ParevNet (http://www.parev.net) is dedicated to
providing a premium dial-up service and Internet portal where
Armenians can connect, communicate and unite online. The service was
launched and has been operational since January 2003.
ParevNet offers unlimited Internet access within the United
States, using a nationwide network of over 4,000 access numbers. Each
account includes 10 email addresses and 15 megabytes of mail storage.
The service is priced at $12.95 per month. That's over $130 in yearly
savings compared to AOL. No setup fee. No annual commitment. Toll-free
support is included. Instructions on how to cancel AOL and
MSN are available on the site. Best of all, ParevNet members can
continue to use their favorite instant messenger (from AOL, ICQ, MSN,
or Yahoo) and access their favorite chat rooms (on AOL, ICQ, MSN, and
Yahoo) free of charge after switching over to ParevNet.
ParevNet also includes a portal, called Armenia Online. Armenia Online includes an Armenian portal and a Best of the Web
directory.
The Armenian portal, Armenia Online,
includes a comprehensive suite of links, reference materials, and
online resources - for Armenians, by Armenians. Original material is
being developed, while other works and services will be provided on
the site through cooperative agreements with other Armenian
organizations. The portal will continue to expand as ParevNet's
pursuit of great content and Armenian Web sites carries on. The portal
is divided into several channels, including About Armenia, Armenian
Bookstore, Church, Culture, Education, Genocide, News, Organizations,
Personals, Shopping, Stories, Travel, Youth, and the Republic of
Armenia.
The Best of the Web directory provides a
one-stop shop for some of the best content and services available on
the "Wild Wild Web". Rather than blindly surf the Web, one
can use this directory as a launching pad for the best consumer sites
available on the Web. As with the Armenian portal, this directory will
expand with time and the discovery of new sites and services worth
adding. Existing channels include business, community, finance,
movies, newsstand, shopping, technology, and travel.
Another important consideration concerning ParevNet is its social
responsibility as an Armenian organization. A portion of the sales
proceeds will be distributed to organizations that advocate the
interests of Armenian communities around the globe.
One last thought. ParevNet's tag line: "ParevNet - where
Armenians connect, communicate and unite online" best describes
what this organization is all about.
