I sent the following email to Mr. Horowitz over the weekend. Anyone have any reaction? Hello Mr. Horowitz, I am a very satisfied shareholder and life time member of Silicon Investor. I just read your interview with Internet World. You mentioned stickiness applications and a need for a catalyst to move people to use broadband. I think it is a possibility that excellent quality full screen video (for movies, games, music, travel) may meet both of those criteria. In my investing research, I have come across a company called On2.com. While this company has not had it's official launch yet, all reports are that they provide superior technology for full screen video for broadband users. I am not connected in anyway with this company, and do not have detailed knowledge of their technology or business plan, but am just suggesting that you might want to look at their offerings and see if it might be something that is a good fit for the Go2net family and it's broadband future. Their site is on2.com and their beta launch is set for Dec 21st. I do not know the full capabilities, but there is the possibility that this technology might provide a competitive application for Go2net to the iCast offerings to be released by CMGI. Keep up the good work, and have a healthy, happy, and wealthy New Year. The news today of a ON2 alliance with Roadrunner (joint venture among affiliates of Time Warner Inc., MediaOne Group, Inc., Microsoft Corp., Compaq Corp., and Advance/Newhouse) makes me further believe GNET should be looking at this company.
