Jeff, you guys must have been pretty busy at work today....dancing on your desks. I used your investment techniques (buy and hold..buy more on dips) to get in at 16,24,&48. I have a good friend that works there and told me about the potential when it was at 8. It took a while to make me a believer though. Any thoughts on the future of search engines ? i.e. WCTI

It looks like the "look" of the portal is definitely going in the right direction. However, my assessment is that the Go2Net Network seems to be a little behind its competition when looking at branding and consistency from site to site. When compared to a Lycos, MSN, etc., Go2Net's properties have very little in common from an interface perspective. Obviously, to best leverage the various properties, Go2Net wants users to stay within the network, moving from site to site in an intuitive manner. Also from a design/aesthetic perspective, some of Go2Net's look less hot than some of its competitors. The logo, for instance, appears as a draft, or a place holder for a "real logo." My comments come from a long GNET investor who is excited about GNET's growth prospects - and feel that the growth would accelerate even faster with an overall network design/interface overhall.
