STREAMING MEDIA EAST CONFERENCE, NEW YORK—June 12, 2000 —Virage, Inc., a leading provider of products and application services that enable video for the Internet, today announced that Healthology, Inc., a leading online health media company, is using Virage application services to syndicate award-winning health and medical video content across Healthology's network of online distribution partners.
