hey no harm in being conservative.. IMO you have to consider all possible downsides.. then measure your own level of risk tolerance with the # of shares you hold so I'm in at a level I can just forget about long term & not sell in case it does become one of the big ones.. and of course there are many hurdles between here and there but its not exactly trading yet at the market cap of XCIT or LCOS or INKT either.. a small percentage thereof so there is balance to the risk at this price IMO!!! but one thing to be sure of when the site is up if it looks great, & works great, this won't be an intangible anymore

James, One needs to understand what, how and why a search engine works. Without search engines, we would not have the WWW explosion, we would not have e-commerce, we would not have ads, we would not have rhyme or reason. Think of SPYHOP the same way you think of your car. It transports you to your destination safely and quickly. The major difference is that SPYHOP can take you to any destination in the world! This company and its product(s) is for real and once everything plays out we are going to be the owners of a S&P gem! Long till y2k g-man

james, my thoughts exactly. This stock seems to be moving too fast!!! (If this was only a NASDAQ big board and not just a non-reporting BB, I would have more confidence to buy at this level. But for now, and at this price, this one is very risky; for sometimes they also fall as hard as they rise.) Well, if I do miss this boat, there are always other trades. I will be watching to see if this one holds up...

James, I didn't answer your question.. what do I think about what's driving it? here's what I think people are considering:: valuations of the other search engines.. YHOO, INKT,LCOS,XCIT,SEEK,GNET,INSP,... the chance to get in on the ground floor the very small market cap now compared to the big ones.. possibility it may be the best search technology.. multilingual capacities may blow away competition contender for a 'second' generation big engine no other serious contenders no other choices at this price per share not many engines left for the big companies to buy up. management's experience with Wordperfect the years of research at BYU the demo the XCIT 6.7 billion deal with @Home SEEK bought by Disney AOL/Netscape deal recent INSP ipo INKT licensing deals rumors about TimeWarner, Microsoft, etc..interested in buying internet presence the recent runs to 100 by GNET, LCOS, etc... the run of yahoo to 400.. investor appetite for anything internet.. going online VERY SOON... etc.etc... enough? don't mean to hype, but I think this is what people are really thinking about, and comparing to, when they buy and WCTI looks pretty cheap right now for what it might become.. starting next month..
