Also, you can see the website at photochannel.com. It has a great intro. to it -- you ought to go there even if just to see the show.
They have not even gotten the thing going yet but the stock has almost doubled in the last few weeks due to them finally getting financing and them making a deal with a premier web designer. Even at C$1.15, and including the added shares from the financing just announced, they have market cap. of just about US$9 million. That's right --- "million", not "billion"!
I got into this stock by accident (its a long story) and since I know nothing about internet stocks I figured I'd get this started here to see what any of you internuts think about this puppy.
Obviously, if the concept works this company's gonna be worth a helluva lot more than US$9 mm. |
