Paul,
heyidiot.com is joined by AllAdvantage.com. The creative powers of America are being stretched to the limit in dreaming up ways of taking advantage of the Internet. The power of capitalism and greed is awesome. Brought to you by copiers of AmWay.

250,000 Members Join AllAdvantage.com in
Less Than 10 Days

Palo Alto, Calif.—April 13, 1999—AllAdvantage.com, a
membership-driven Internet service company announced
today that 250,000 Internet users joined its free
membership service in less than 10 days of operation. The
service pays members to be online in exchange for putting
the AllAdvantage.com Viewbar™ at the bottom of their
browser window when surfing.

"The excitement of AllAdvantage.com has spread much
quicker than we expected," says Jim Jorgensen, CEO of
AllAdvantage.com. "We look forward to helping these
thousands of new AllAdvantage.com members reap the
rewards of their affiliation with a large Internet group."

I'm sure many of you are probably sick of looking at this by now, but if you haven't visited thier site yet I
suggest you check out the link below. Also I think there is a thread for this company somewhere here on SI.

What is AllAdvantage.com all about?
Getting you, the members, the most benefits from the Web. AllAdvantage.com uses the power of
a large group to get the most value from the Internet to its members. This means giving
members the ability to "Get Paid to Surf the Web" (which we do with our Viewbar™) and to get
cash refunds from on-line shopping (which most on-line stores already pay to large groups, but
you as an individual rarely see), just to name a couple. AllAdvantage.com pays its own members
referral fees to increase the size of the group instead of spending millions of dollars on
advertising on the Yahoo!, Excite, television or the radio. Since AllAvantage.com is solely on the
Internet, the referral system is much easier than the old word of mouth. AllAdvantage.com is the
next natural step that the Internet is taking.

How do I "Get Paid to Surf the Web?"
Sign up to be a member. It's free. It's fast (one minute - no survey to fill out). You get a
member ID# immediately upon joining. Then you are eligible to download our Viewbar™. You will
get a welcome email with an approximate date that you can download the Viewbar™. The
Viewbar™ will be made available on a first come, first served basis, so it pays to sign up early.
The Viewbar™ is a small bar (a little taller than the Windows 95/98 Taskbar at the bottom of your
screen). The Viewbar™ comes up automatically at the bottom of your Web browser when you go
online. While you are on the Net and the Viewbar™ is active, AllAdvantage.com will pay you $.50
per hour. Currently we have a 40 hour limit per month ($20). You can get the Viewbar™ off your
screen at any time with just one click. Click here to see a demonstration of the Viewbar™.

How does the referral payment system work?
The chart below demonstrates the AllAdvantage.com referral payment system. In words: For every
person you refer to AllAdvantage.com, we will pay you $.10 for every hour that each of those
people is online with the Viewbar™ active. In addition, we will pay you for extended referrals at
the rate of $.05 per hour. Extended referrals are those referrals made by the members that you
referred to AllAdvantage.com. Extended referrals continue for four people past your original
referral (the chart below illustrates). There is no limit to the number of referrals you can get paid
for, up to 40 hours per person per month.
