puck here is a reference on the cost of that aol deal excerpt Naveen Jain, CEO of InfoSpace, is also happy to have AOL as a shareholder. In 1998, Jain struck an agreement with AOL to carry its online white-pages service. As part of the deal, InfoSpace agreed to share advertising revenue with AOL and to give it warrants equal to about 5 percent of the company. Jain says the warrants give AOL more of an incentive to see InfoSpace succeed. Depending on how much business it generates for InfoSpace, AOL has the potential to acquire stock that would be worth more than $500 million at today's prices. zdnet.com KLP I wonder if they spelled naveen's name wrong on purpose to piss him off...I would have. siliconinvestor.com
