    REDMOND, Wash., Jan. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Infoflows Corporation today
announced its participation in the Technology and Orphan Works: The State of
the Art event hosted by the Copyright Office in Washington, DC. Orphan works
are copyrighted works whose owners are difficult or impossible to identify and
locate. Focused on showcasing the most innovative new technologies likely to
have a positive impact on the Orphan Works problem, Infoflows demonstrated its
Fedmark Image and Video Services to Congressional staff members responsible
for overseeing changes to Copyright Laws.
    "We were very happy to be invited to this innovative event and commend the
Copyright Office for being so diligent in its review of potential solutions to
the Orphan Works problem," stated Steve Stone, CEO of Infoflows Corporation.
"Fedmark offers content users an effective and east-to-use tool for making a
diligent search to locate copyright owners."
    In early 2006 after extensive study, the US Copyright Office recommended
changes to existing copyright law that would provide limitations on damages
awards and injunctions available to copyright owners if a prospective content
user, prior to the commencement of use, performs a good faith, reasonably
diligent search to locate the copyright owner yet is unable to locate the
owner. "We are very pleased by the industry support from companies like
Infoflows for this event, and believe that they, along with others, were able
to show how technology can help address this problem," stated Marybeth Peters,
Register of Copyrights in the US Copyright Office.
    Infoflows launched the Fedmark platform in 2006. Based on the patented
Handle System, the Fedmark Platform is a system for uniquely and persistently
identifying, managing, and tracking digital objects. Supported by an easily
managed user interface and the most powerful internet crawl technology
available in the industry, Infoflows believes that Fedmark Video will become
the standard for intellectual property protection for stock image content
owners.
