The Sync was an independently owned and operated webcasting company that pioneered the presentation of original and exclusive webcast entertainment content [1][2]. Started by Thomas Edwards and Carla Cole in 1997 and based in Laurel, Maryland, the company made history in 1998 by presenting Erica Jordan’s film “Walls of Sand” for real time viewing. This was the first time that a contemporary feature film was made available for online viewing.[3]
