At 13:33:46 someone bought 85,000 shares at 38 5/8 zero plus tick. No big deal but their heart is in the right place. Each day this stock jumps up at the open and then sells off. This is the shedding process. You may notice that the selling is running out of gas because the selling spells have less downward slope and are more brief. The stock is putting in a nice solid bottom, the only kind of bottom to have. Some very interesting news will be coming in several weeks. I'll guess it will hit Nov 14. Just the beginning though of a series of releases that should propel the stock higher. I don't know if you're familiar with ON24 but that is symbolic of ATHM's future. ON24 is using streaming media to present financial news. Why not use the same layout to present "commerce news"? Let's stop calling it "ads" or "content" or "e-commerce". These are buzz-buzz words and I'm hearing them too often from CEOs. They are liberally mixed with "in this space" and "skills set", among other sufficiently vague terms whose use is intended to impress but which have no meaning. Commerce news can be presented in the media skills set within the ATHM space.

Letter to Oregon Heres a copy of a letter to Oregon cable guys at teledee@ci.portland.or.us I am going to start writting to my city to tell them what I think about what Oregon is doing. I suggest others do the same. I have been a Internet user for about 10 years. I look forward to connecting via broadband. I applaud the capital investments made by companies like AT&T to make broadband a reality. I realize companies that invest billions of dollars want a return on their investment. I also realize that if there return is hampered they will be less likely to invest. I would hope that governments would not constrain technology growth by premature regulation. I suggest that you guys do what is in your cities best interest. I would think you would have better things to do with your money than hamper technology growth. perhaps spending money on schools or programs for the needy would better serve your city than creating legal roadblocks that will hamper your cities ability to connect to the Internet via broadband.
