hey just kidding around with you....your a New Yorker right you can take it..right ...see post 7766 from NOTn.... here is a line from it "Have been out traveling and don't have time to catch up on all the posts. Cracked open the latest edition of Wired magazine on a plane and there is a very clever GNET ad featuring a great white shark eating a surfer." He is from Manhattan also. Look him up, have a drink and then write us back about what you guys figured out about gnet.

Hi Martin, I forgot to reply to you yesterday on this ad stuff on the Amazon thread. This shark print ad corresponded with another promotion a few months ago where gnet sponsored a logo on Holyfields shorts. Both concepts are kind of "out there"... to be honest I didn't know they were still running the shark ad. They did these ads before the Allen investment I believe, so their intent was to draw attention to gnet and establish themselves as a valid portal I would guess. Yeah, its kind of a hard-edge like bynd or cool though and the internet has moved past that, I agree, time for some more mainstream stuff. At any rate this ad is old news and now that they are affiliated with Allen its a whole different ballgame, maybe gnet will do some cooperative ads with Datek or something... lots of Allen's portfolio don't do any advertising now.
