I appreciate the input. I see this topic as in its very early stage and a lot of what is happening is not well understood. I was interested in their Public Utility concept using a per-transaction fee system and the fact they are using SUN. I dont see the difference between using a server farm such as FLNKD uses and a super computer(maybe you can explain). One thing I was concerned about is that it is a BB company and it is difficult at best to get info on their financials. What's more is it is a Canadian BB and I'm Canadian <g> Also in the article at the bottom it states: "The Fax Alert Service is classed as an advertisement and its direct expenses of production and distribution, amounting to about $7000, are paid for by the company covered. Affiliates also have a public relations consulting agreement paying $6,000/mo. for one year, as well as being eligible for compensation of 50,000 shares of the company's stock, now being negotiated.Publisher and affiliates are prohibited from trading in the stock of the company for 30 days prior to and following dissemination of this issue. Data herein is provided by the company covered, and text has been approved by the company. Publisher is not an investment advisor. Not to say they won't rock the industry, but I like to get all the info. GF
