How about a hook up with Google? Don't laugh, it would be the best of both worlds for all concerned. JULY 14, 2003 PREVIOUS NEWS ANALYSIS What's Google Worth? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In light of today’s announcement by Yahoo Inc. (Nasdaq: YHOO - message board) that it intends to buy Overture (Nasdaq: OVER - message board) for $1.6 billion in stock and cash, eyeballs are now turning to Google’s next move. Following Yahoo's merger with Overture, Google will be the obvious big independent player in the search market. But Google will also face a larger Overture/Yahoo Goliath, which could potentially put more pressure on it by lowering the prices of paid placement ads. This means that Google needs to quickly gain more mass and competitive edge. The paths to quick growth are usually merger or public offering. Google has so far shunned Wall Street’s call for an IPO. But now that its two largest competitors are merging it may have to rethink things. Adding more pressure would be the raft of private investors in Google who might now want to cash out during the mini-boom. Silicon Valley has been speculating for months about when Google would IPO, if for no other reason than the company is one of the few bright spots amid the technology depression...

Bob, In your letter you said: "If you paid for a Lifetime Subscription and the system isn't reflecting that,..." and the home page shows: "If the Status Code below is shorter than 3 characters or is "SIX", you only have until 7/31/2003 to purchase a Lifetime Subscription." But, I can't find anything that shows what the other status codes indicate. Or, are you saying that any code of at least 3 characters but not SIX mean "lifetime subscription?" Bill
