EGGS News!!!!

Looks good :) More advertising agreements are what we need kids!

EGGS News....could be good endorsement.

DoubleClick alliance is big. Marketing and eyeballs are the key for any e-commerce company. If EGGS keeps doing deals like this...their user base and sales will rocket to catch up to eBay's. I guess this will give the CEO something to talk about today on CNBC!
