Mistake in my earlier post. In my earlier post (that I'm responding to) I said that Freemarkets has ".com" in its name. That's not true. The company name is, as the title of this board shows, simply Freemarkets Inc. Sorry about my error. The company has actually been around since 1995, longer than most of the ".com" Internuts. To hopefully make up for my mistake here's a couple of interesting articles on the company that I found on that list of articles that was also in my previous post: "How Bazaar" cio.com -- "Seller door" (includes short interview with CEO Glen Meakem) inc.com -- "E-muscle" forbes.com
