I called to the aid of my daughter before I could finish that post. Here's what I wanted it to say:

Mike,

Ariba does look like some Gorilla Game attributes are in place from one vantage point, yet another seems to point elsewhere:

"Ariba revenues include software, consulting (lots from what I've heard) and transaction fees."

Then one post later, I read this:

"I'm sitting in an Ariba Class typing this...On the subject of transaction fees, C1 charges transactions fee to the buyers who use the C1 MarketSite. Ariba does not charge transaction fee for use of the AribaNetwork."

Following this a discussion breaks out about some customers who buy the Ariba product upfront - the price includes a number of transactions. Other customers who don't buy the proprietary product, but use the Ariba network similar to one C1 has pays per transaction.

Here's an article that talks about Ariba's ability to possibly charge for transactions:

I will keep digging.
