Abstract

The invention features a method and apparatus for using a facsimile (fax) machine (130) which is compatible with the World Wide Web (WWW) to store faxes on a web site (150), from which the faxes can later be viewed and retrieved by users through a computer (160) with a monitor (180) and a printer (190). The web site (150) on which the web-compatible fax machine (130) stores faxes is uniquely associated with the fax machine (130). The web-compatible fax machine (130) converts faxes into an appropriate format before storing them on the web site (150). Optionally, the web site (150) may be password-protected to prevent unauthorized users from accessing stored faxes.
