Straight,

From the auto show.

Hit GM Live, then go to program schedule under Live events and schedules. You will see the 9 pm AOL/GM release which is below.

MyTalk has said on one of its pages to look for exciting developments in the international arena. I would assume they wouldn't mislead us poor investors.

Take care,
Kurt

GM and AOL Change The Future.

General Motors, the world's largest corporation, and America Online, the world's largest Internet
service provider, announced on January 9th that they have formed a major strategic alliance that
will bring consumers the easiest and most convenient personalized car shopping and lifetime
ownership experience.

AOL and GM will cooperate in the development of new products and services that will bring GM,
its dealers, and AOL's online customers closer together. AOL has recently redesigned its own
Auto Channel and will have it online later this year, with easy access to GM's brands.


Also this spring, AOL will launch My Auto, a new personalized automotive destination with a
number of unique features including My Calendar, a personalized calendar and schedule that
will help car owners stay in touch with news, important dates and vehicle maintenance
schedules,
leading to a comprehensive car ownership experience.

GM's OnStar, the world's leading in-vehicle safety and security information service provider, will
work with GM and AOL to provide an even higher level of services. GM and AOL said that they will
work together to expand their relationship outside the U.S.,
and GM will make AOL software
available through a variety of GM marketing channels.

According to Forrester Research, more than two million consumers surfed the Internet in 1999
looking for information to help them buy a new vehicle. Projections are that by 2003, that number
will increase to eight million, with nearly 500,000 households using the internet in connection
with the purchase of vehicles, and generating $12 billion in revenues.

General Motors' new electronic business unit, e-GM, and its president, Mark Hogan, will work
directly with AOL to implement the strategic alliance between GM and AOL.

Stay tuned to aol.com and gm.com for further developments.
