First of all, WELCOME BACK and a late HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I hope you had a good rest and you are ready for more fantastic
VRML worlds in 1999. Here at blaxxun it's full steam ahead and
we would like to take a moment to thank you for staying with us,

surveys, and of course reading this newsletter :)
Lots of new projects are in the loop like virtual share-holder
meetings over the internet, online shopping, virtual offices,
virtual campus and more. So stay tuned and accompany us into
the next millennium.

We had a great start into the new year, especially for ColonyCity.

ColonyCity
======
ColonyCity was launched in June 1998 and since then over 38,000
people have immigrated and the number keeps growing. To keep the
City from bursting, we opened new suburbs with more apartments to
settle down and a Fun Park to relax and hang out.
In 1999 new colonies such as the Entertainment, the Cyberhood
(with games), the Downtown (with virtual offices), the Campus Colony
etc will be added.
After weeks of construction, the virtual ball game stadium will also
open soon. This will be the most elaborate VRML world in ColonyCity
so far, with lots of interactivity to offer.
One extension a lot of you are eagerly waiting for will also come in
the new year. Everybody will have the possibility to incorporate their
own worlds within the City. So you can add your own garden and invite
people over to a winter BBQ.

============
The holidays are just over and you still feel like going on holidays!
Visit virtual Paris and talk to the natives without having to worry
about getting caught in a snowstorm. All the streets and unique parts
of Paris are available now and can be claimed by the visitors. You just
have to get the paintbrush out and color the walls!
The new photo-realistic place called "La Place des Vosges" has been added
to virtual Paris. This is something you have probably never seen before
in VRML. The place really looks fantastic and you are tempted to go to
the next bar for a cappuccino and an éclair and not going back to work.
One highlight in December was that Woody Allen held a press conference on
December 22nd and visitors could join the conference in virtual Paris.

Product News
========

We also have new features in blaxxun Contact Java. For all people who also
like to chat in 2D, the new features can be tested in ColonyCity.

HTML Links
Now you can type HTML links starting with http:// or ftp:// in the chat text
area and they will be displayed in a different color and underlined. A click
on such a link will display valid HTML URLs in a new browser window.

Smile Icon
Just type the word "smile" in the text box and the word will immediately be
replaced with a smiley icon in the chat window. At the moment this is the
only image that can be displayed in ColonyCity's Contact Java but more are
to come.

Text Color
At any position in the text, you can change the text color to any of the
following predefined colors: orange, yellow, green, red, blue, purple,
black and white. You just have to type a double slash followed by any of
the color names above.
Example: //blue HELLO or //blueHELLO
Hello will be displayed in blue until a new color token is detected.

Font Size
Change your font size as you like. The font size is limited from 10 - 20 to
make sure that no one can have the Chat Panel all to himself. Type a double
slash and a plus sign followed by the size you would like the text to be.
Example: //+19 HELLO
For Text Color and Font Size: //blue//+19 HELLO
Hello will be displayed in blue and size 19.

I feel that you have got a good handle on CMGI and you are one of the best posters on this string,like I am on Tellab's string. I'm a recent convert to this stock and this string. I can handle the high beta.
Can you share with us your view for a 12 month projection on CMGI and some of your reasons for your evaluations. My files on CMGI are about 4 inches thick, when they are 8 inches thick, I will feel more comfortable about being a regular contributor to this string.
Thanks for your response.
