What's New:

Rendezvous Sticky Notes - Taking advantage of Rendezvous, Apple's new automatic network technology, you can instantly and automatically share your "sticky note" bookmarks and research with others.

Surf the Ages - The acclaimed World Book "Surf" feature has been expanded to include fictional Web sites as far back as 3500 B. C.

Just Listening - This new feature gathers World Book's music and sounds into themes from national anthems to bird calls. Media floating by on the Waterstream home screen change to reflect the selected sound theme.

Enhanced Notepad - The World Book Notepad easy-to-use word processor has been greatly enhanced with new features including resize graphics, spell-checking-as-you-type, page breaks, margins, send as email, and page numbering.

Automatic Update Notification - World Book's application icon in the dock will start spinning when article updates or new media are ready to be downloaded to keep your copy of World Book up to date.

3D Interactive Globe - Using satellite photography, the new World Book globe gives you an extraordinary astronaut's-eye-view of Earth as it appears from outer space.

Just Looking by Theme - Browse World Book's rich media collection through dozen of “themes" such as Sports Heroes, Famous Women, European Art, Dinosaurs, Scientists and Inventors, and more.

"Waterstream" Home Screen - Through the power of Mac OS X, the "water" on the new World Book Home Screen appears to move and media float by like leaves in a stream.

World Book Screen Saver - A fully customizable screen saver sends photos and movies from World Book's rich media collection floating and spinning across your screen when your Mac is idle for a while. Select one of 16 themes such as Stars of Stage & Screen, Animal Kingdom, Tour of Asia, European Paintings, and more.

Speech Capabilities - World Book's speech capabilities in the 2004 Edition make it possible for you to navigate World Book using voice commands and have any article from World Book's 22-Volume print edition read aloud to you.
