I want more information about the AOL deal. Today AOL issued press release announcing "ClassifiedPlus" that made no mention of INSP. Instead they list a half dozen sites from which they aggregate Classifieds content. Was INSP not mentioned because they only provide the infrastructure?

ClassifiedPlus, now available across America Online, AOL.COM, Digital City and Netscape Netcenter, will enable AOL's more than 17 million members, as well as the more than 41 million monthly visitors to AOL's Web-based brands, to browse millions of listings in 10 major categories including jobs, vehicles, real estate, computers, personals and auctions.
In addition to the 10 major consumer listing categories, ClassifiedPlus will offer classifieds content from REALTOR.COM, CommercialSource.com, HomeBuilder.com, SpringStreet.com, Apartment Guide, AutoConnect, Rent Net, Net-temps, Techies.com, Jobs.com & Webhire, and access to eBay. All content can be searched by location.
ClassifiedPlus, which represents a broad upgrade of the existing AOL
Classifieds area, will put ads posted on ClassifiedPlus in front of millions of additional potential buyers, making ClassifiedPlus a powerful -- and lower-cost -- alternative to traditional newspaper classifieds. |
