Folio

As far as OMKT's much criticized Folio acquisition, Forrester has this to say:

forrester.com 98cmr.htm

"As Internet commerce becomes material to overall corporate revenue, companies will scramble to enhance their site analysis and content management software. This will be necessary in order for firms to quickly identify what customers want and don't want and then efficiently tweak content and experience to suit emerging needs."

"The value of specialized commerce content will go up. As Internet commerce business practices take shape within industries, the move to Transactive Content will accelerate. This is because the relatively narrow context of a vertical market will make it possible to blend together transactions, interactivity, and content in a meaningful way. This development will breathe life into the content sector, as industry-tuned on-line information gains tangible value by becoming inextricably woven into business transactions over the Net."

--Can you say "Folio". OMKT has been much criticized for the folio acquisition, yet Forrestor's opinion seems to be that it could turn out to be quite valuable to OMKT.

In fact, Forrester seems to indicate that with Folio OMKT can fill a much needed gap in internet content management. forrester.com 2998.htm

Bottom line IMO is that OMKT is not just some flash in the pan momentum play right now but a killer investment opportunity for a longer 3-5 year haul. Certainly take some profit if you are short term oriented when the time comes, but do yourself a favor and keep some, lock it away for 3 yrs and then come back and see what you've got. It won't be a smooth easy straight up ride, but IMO you'll be plesently surprised. Just my opinion but then I am raging bullish on OMKT, obviously.

And please can we STOP THE DAMN SPAMMING OF EVERY OTHER COMPANY EVERYONE IS INVESTED IN!!!!!!!!! Thanks, but no thanks, I am sticking with OMKT.

Good luck to all.
