Headline: Go2Net Again Beats Estimates As 2nd-Quarter Revenue Soars ================================================================ NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- Internet network operator Go2Net Inc. posted much better-than-expected core earnings for its fiscal second quarter as revenue jumped more than fourfold. For the quarter ended March 31, the Seattle-based company had a net loss of $11.5 million, or 38 cents a share, compared with a net loss of $1.1 million, or $2.04 a share, in the year-ago period. Revenue soared to $18.7 million from $4.3 million. Go2Net (GNET) said excluding amortization and merger-related costs, it earned $8.3 million, or 18 cents a share, in the latest quarter. The mean estimate of analysts surveyed by First Call/Thomson Financial was for earnings of 11 cents a share. Go2Net similarly blew by the analysts' estimate in the fiscal first quarter. The company said that excluding payment of $52.9 million in preferred dividends in the year-earlier quarter, it earned three cents a share. The company, which operates a network of financial, entertainment and electronic-commerce Web sites, said average views on its network in March jumped 177% from year-ago levels.

Roger, congratulations. You captured all of it. You must have been a Court Reporter in a former existence. I wholly agree with you about JK's effectiveness. This is the 2nd time I've watched him on TV since the annual meeting. He has developed a mature and relaxed style of delivery that wasn't visible before. As a result he exuded a passionate and credible vision for Go2Net's future as a major player. I don't think it was the curl in the middle of his forehead. It was the occasional wistful smile that captured Maria. I claim all the credit for his performance. As you may recall I lectured JK about this at the annual meeting, telling him that a certain feminine admirer, who was in attendance, insisted that I do so. Sy
