Kaiser says Meteor itching to blast off

Thursday Dec 16 1999
John Kaiser, writing in a Bottom-Fish Action for the week of Dec. 6-10, says Meteor Technologies is poised for a
strong speculative run. "Buckle up and hold your breath," he says. Mr. Kaiser recommended the stock in December,
1998, at 29 cents, and in June at 15 cents, soon after the company focused on an Internet search product under
development called Thoughtshare.com. He wrote about Meteor on four subsequent occasions. Mr. Kaiser says
Thoughtshare is essentially a bookmarking system, an area of the Internet that has been getting a lot of press lately.
Meteor will fund its 35-per-cent share of the project, more if Thoughtshare fails to raise capital from other sources, he
says, adding that it is too late for a rollback. Looking down the road, Mr. Kaiser says a rollback will probably wait for
later, when it needs a $5 (U.S.) price to qualify for a Nasdaq listing. The selling seems to have dried up and the chart is
ready for a breakout, Mr. Kaiser writes.
Meteor Technologies Inc -
Kaiser says backflip sparks Meteor-ic rise
Meteor Technologies Inc MMI
Shares issued 17,019,820 1999-12-17 close $0.4
Monday Dec 20 1999
John Kaiser, writing in a Bottom-Fish Tracker on Dec. 19, says Meteor finally came to life on Dec. 15, apparently
triggered by interest surrounding the launch of backflip.com. Mr. Kaiser recommended Meteor in December, 1998, at
29 cents, and in June, 1999, at 15 cents. "Right now Meteor is developing into a momentum play driven by the
Thoughtshare potential," he writes. backflip.com is a competing bookmark project founded by a couple of former
Netscape executives. Mr. Kaiser says in spite of his best efforts, most people have failed to comprehend the
implications of the Thoughtshare concept; backflip.com, however, has gained wide media coverage in the United
States, including an item in Forbes magazine. backflip.com is a destination site in which an Internet surfer can store his
bookmarks by clicking a "backflip" button installed on his browser tool bar through a browser plugin. What is stored
becomes the basis of a classification system of rules unique to the user. The service is free, but comes at the price of
lost privacy through a "click stream" that is left behind and is used to target advertising. At Thoughtshare, this
information remains only with the user. Whereas backflip.com stores users' personalized directories on its mega site,
Thoughtshare's directories are stored in users' computers; as such they are also portable via E-mail.
