Thanks for your thoughts, LE. I honestly don't know the nuts-and-bolts requirements of a B2B operation. I just see a whole lot of stocks throwing the "B2B" phrase around all of a sudden, probably because it is a buzzword, like you said. When GONT became the third or fourth stock in my portfolio to put out a "B2B" PR in less than three weeks, it didn't garner much attention from me. I'll just add it to the array of ventures that this unfocused company is dabbling in.

Don't get me wrong, longs. Let them dabble. As long as they don't run bankrupt doing it. Maybe they will strike gold with one of their ventures.

And didn't anyone else see the latest PR about Linkshare as yet another ploy to have GONT come up on the radar screens of people looking for other companies (like DELL) that were mentioned, offhand in GONT's PR? I didn't think it took anything to become a part of those Link Advertisement chains, but I could be wrong....

LE, as for your last paragraph, it is the only one I would disagree with. Saying that the contractors and repair crew aren't GONT personnel is immaterial. When I say that the hotels may be "pleased with dealing with GONT", I mean it in the simplest terms. GONT put a kiosk in the lobby, the kiosk makes money, the hotel gets a cut, the hotel is happy. Doesn't matter if they never hear from GONT again (aside from getting a check every month), they will be "pleased".

I'm sure Tom's already staking out the cross to crucify me for even talking to you...or even worse, for daring to discuss doubts about this company...but what is everyone's take on the recent rise? Don't anyone tell me that it's long-term holders discovering our great little company. It's from the recent paid advertisements on get-rich-quick stock sites. We are exchanging shares for promotion. Now, any exposure is good, IMHO, but what kind of investors are we bringing on board? While some may actually do some DD (what little can be done right now), most are probably in for a quick percentage move and then dump. The only thing that puzzles (and worries) me, is why we have moved so little. Being touted the way we currently are, I expected a lot of volume and a big spike. Spin doctors would say that this is a slow and steady rise brought on by accumulation amongst "true longs". I can't help but think maybe, despite our recent promotion, there just isn't enough new blood out there to rope into buying GONT. I suppose only time will tell. If we can sustain this move, I'll be one happy dude. If not.....
