no hardware, no software

no extra telephone line required for the fax
-
paperless communication, integrated with email
-
send and receive multiple faxes simultaneously
-
no busy signals
-
reduction in phone costs
-
ability to receive and send faxes from any location
that has Internet access
-
privacy as the fax comes directly to your computer
-
the ability to send the same fax to multiple numbers

Cookies
Cookies are small files which are stored on a user's computer. They are designed to hold a modest amount of data specific to a particular client and website, and can be accessed either by the web server or the client computer. This allows the server to deliver a page tailored to a particular user, or the page itself can contain some script which is aware of the data in the cookie and so is able to carry information from one visit to the website (or related site) to the next.C
