As far as new technology...requiring experience...well...like GNET has done with all the companies it has bought many of the individuals that built and maintained those companies have joined the team

Yes. But all the companies brought together so far have been in a very similar business. They are either web media or closely related e-commerce businesses. Levy's suggestions argues that they should branch out into a significantly different business.

For AltaVista, the ISP business seems to be a desperation move to buy back some of the time they lost by failing to keep up with the changes that were happening in the web media market. I don't GNET is in such desperate straits.
