Good Job, Adam - this thread will be very informative and a lot of fun.
Until recently, PA's investments seemed fragmented and maybe even a little whimsical, to most, I think (or maybe it's just lack of any "vision" on my part!). But within the past six months, the convergence of investments has become very apparent, things are making more and more sense everyday and it's getting really intriguing.
Carolyn,
I don't know anything about Paul Allen. Is he the type to fulfill a secret fantasy, or a focused dedicated businessman with a far-reaching plan for his vision? Or both?
Both, IMO. Adam's link on post (0) will get you up to speed pretty quickly on PA, or at least get your imagination revved up!
The last couple of days I've been wondering what's up with Mercata - GNET and Mercata announced an alliance a while back, but I haven't heard much since.

I feel like Mercata's gonna be a big deal.
Also, I find myself a little unnerved about PA's (through VV's Savoy) talks with AOL of late, mostly because I see it as a threat to what I had envisioned as a pretty exclusive arrangement between GNET and Charter. RTev summed up my thoughts pretty well in a recent post - I'll try to find it.
Anyways, thanks again for getting this going, Adam.
