There is an interesting discussion going on concerning the SI deal with go2net: To: Scott Pedigo (7 ) From: Brad Dryer Thursday, Apr 23 1998 9:53AM ET Reply # of 163 Scott, your concerns are appropriate and I know it's going to take a while for us to prove our resolve, but this acquisition will not change the spirit of SI as a member-driven site. (1) the SI interface will not change significantly...we're of course going to keep making improvements, as we have in the past. We're still going to get the majority of our ideas for these changes from member feedback. (2) We may convert to a recurring subscription plan and eliminate the lifetime fee for new members at some point, but we're certainly going honor the existing lifetime memberships. (3) We will not bombard you with banner advertising or other forms of solicitation. Specifically, banner ads will not be placed in the message boards for members (If we do, you will have the ability to turn them off). If you have any other questions, please ask. Brad Dryer Silicon Investor There are several other interesting comments by Brad. As a "charter member" I've seen alot of changes to the sight and everyone has been positive so far. Just my 2 cents.
