IMON - hmmmm... I'm not so positive about the future of this company. I definitely think it's a great inet play and could do well short term, but this thing will more than likely end right back up where it came from. Search engines are free. Metacrawler does everything I need (although they are ugly now that they are trying for the "portal" look) and altavista picks up any slack. 90% of the time I can find what I'm looking for on the first page of results. True, IMON may be "more" than a simple search engine, but I wouldn't be too surprised to see something similar released for free in the near future. Isn't that what everyone's working on? Creating "smarter" search engines? I just wanted to let people know that while this is probably a good momo play, but hold your breath on making a ton of money in the long term. Maybe I'm wrong (nahhhh...), but I just cannot imagine Mr.&Mrs. AOL spending $45 to search the web, when everyone's default home page is a search engine. llater, Tony B
