NOT, a "serious" post - but birds of a feather, do flock together (and beat their wings the same way): Commission Junction has More Online Merchants Than any Other Affiliate Marketing Solution Provider SANTA BARBARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 13, 2000-- Commission Junction, the pioneer of EnContext(TM), today announced the addition of its 500th merchant, Infonautics, Inc. [NASDAQ: INFO], a pioneering provider of personalized information agents and Internet sites. With more online merchants than any other affiliate marketing solution provider, Commission Junction again proves to be the solution of choice for leading Internet merchants. Infonautics earned the 500th spot after launching an affiliate marketing program for its Entertainment SleuthTM site (http://www.entertainmentsleuth.com), which notifies fans of the latest news, photos, gossip and more for up to 10 of their favorite stars and celebrities - all for free. Entertainment Sleuth marks Infonautics' seventh merchant program with Commission Junction. As the vertical channels of the Sleuth Center site grows, other affiliate marketing programs are planned for launch. "We are very excited to have reached this major milestone in just 15 months, but more importantly, we are extremely pleased to be partnering with a first-rate online merchant like Infonautics," said Lex Sisney, CEO of Commission Junction.
