Russell Horowitz has NOT made a wrong move yet.......I believe that he is constantly on the cutting edge of what needs to be done for GNET shareholders......As we sit here and watch the stock move sideways, I believe that he is working to all hours of the night, diligently planning GNET'S next move.I think that there will be MANY major alliances such as the Hasbro deal.....When Russ(I feel like I know him) was on Moneyline, he said that GNET was going to hire 200 people over the upcoming months, to me that is HUGE.He has done a FANTASTIC job thus far, why doubt him in the future????????

Do you really believe that GNET would publicly state their strategy to the public????????????????? Even you would not expect them to do that so they would potentially drive up the prices of potential acquisitions........

Hi,

Thought I'd answer some of your questions (even if they were rhetorical to the pos side):

* Any Substantial International Moves?
Well, not really yet. I don't think there is any doubt that we will see this in the near future

* Any Wireless Strategy?

a) doesn't really matter, GNET is content on the web the more access the more people to GNET,
b) yes! GNET designs its web pages to be fast and efficient. This will be extremely important on the slower connections that wireless will offer. This will put us steps ahead in the wireless game
c) why do you ask? are you showing a little Green to all the QCOM people? I'm not one of 'em, but There'll be other opportunities to make 1000% in three months

* Any Major Marketing Efforts in the works?

Just continuous branding, and being the best. Mergers will act as marketing. No, not in the normal portal way, but that the GNET way -- and it has worked pretty well so far.

* Any Integration of the Authorize.net services with Hypermart Network?

Personal experience on this one. I maintain a Hypermart site. Just this week I received an e-mail saying that the previous method of tracking visitors was being discontinued in exchange fortiered stats reporting. Pay more... get better stats. It's real temping to go for it, except that I can write my own stat machines. Business owners will be happy to fork over the extra change to use Authorises great stats.

* Any Broadband Partners Initiatives?

Umm, duh? PA. That's enough for now ;)

* Any Major Alliances?
