This company is incredible with the number of partnerships and initiatives they are announcing on a weekly basis. AOL is becoming not just an internet giant, but a media giant and an aggregator. In the meantime, the stock price this entire month is like a spring that has been winding tighter and tighter, getting ready for earnings.

Whoaaa, Calvin.....This is Big, Big, Big...This is a potential new set of eyeballs for AOL, about 34 Million of them, with over 50 Million projected by the end of '99!

I wonder how AOL is being compensated for this?...Maybe the advertising "awareness" value, everytime AOL's symbols, news, other references come up, will translate into some sort of revenue---perhaps some directly and in indirect ways.

However this partnership translates to AOL's bottom line, I'm sure it will be big.

Any thoughts?

Regards, George
