Geocities has a much larger internet presence ("brand name recognition") than Broadcast.com Yeah, but can they generate more hype per share than Broadcast.com:-?

From: Urlman Here is my research that I just conducted at my favorite (and the best) Search Engine, Altavista (note both searches done in all lowercase altavista.digital.com ) geocities.com About 1,771,691 matches were found. broadcast.com About 4207 matches were found. YEAH AND WHEN YOU TYPE IN "GAY SEX" 4,755,234 MATCHES WERE FOUND. SO WHAT'S YOUR POINT? I HOPE PEOPLE IN THIS FORUM WILL PITCH THEIR LEVEL OF ANALYSIS INTO BROADCAST.COM'S FUTURE WORTH AT A DEEPER LEVEL THAN HOW MANY HITS IT BRINGS UP ON ALTA VISTA. BESIDES I KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT GEOCITIES. FOR THE MOST PART IT IS A BUNCH OF FAMILY PHOTO ALBUMS MASQUERADING AS WEBSITES. THAT'S THE ONLY REASON WHY IT HAS MORE HITS. THERE ARE ALWAYS FAR MORE LOCKERS IN HIGH SCHOOL THAN WORKSTATIONS. BUT WHICH HAS THE GREATEST LONG TERM VALUE? GEOCITES WILL BE THE BEST SHORT EVER. DUMB INVESTORS WILL BUY THE IPO FOR DUMB REASONS LIKE THE ONE ABOVE. THEN WHEN PEOPLE REALIZE IT'S NEVER GONNA BE ANYTHING MORE THAN A WORLD WIDE TRAILERPARK IT'LL TANK. BOY I HOPE IT'S IPO SOARS!!! HAHAHAAHAHA!!!
