- Sausage Software
Sausage Software was an Australian software company, founded by entrepreneur Steve Outtrim, which produced one of the world's most successful web editors: the
HotDog web authoring tool. The product and company name have since been purchased by a US firm, which has no ties to the former company, which is now called SMS Management & Technology.In its time, HotDog was 'the world's most popular web editor' and the company became the 'dotcom darling' of the Australian media receiving a large amount of media exposure due to the young age of the company's founder and staff featuring pinball machines and a pool table in the company's reception area.
Sausage Software also invested in various other pioneering software strategies and products:
- a range of small independent software products called "snaglets"
- an early micro-payment system
- a Java
Electronic Commerce Server (JECS), a generalizedmiddleware layer serving Java Applets with database data on request via anXML -like request/response protocol.References
