Looks like Microsoft dropped INKTOMI as their search engine.No loyalty here folks!May the best search engine survive! from the "MOTLEY FOOL" "Also disappointed today were investors in Inktomi Corp. (Nasdaq: INKT). Shares of the developer of scalable software for the Internet lost $18 7/16 to $129 13/16 on news that software powerhouse Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) will drop Inktomi as the primary search engine on the Microsoft Network. Inktomi still has plenty of clients, powering the search engines of Lycos' (Nasdaq: LCOS) HotBot, GeoCities (Nasdaq: GCTY), and @Home (Nasdaq: ATHM), among others, and CEO David Peterschmidt reportedly advised Wall Street that the contract counts for less than 5% of revenue" Alex

yes, many good reasons for splits, but one of the best, besides reduced volatility, is to help maintain forward progress on growth.. how many times have we seen a yahoo, dell, amzn, etc split, at say 100, 2 for 1, then run right back from 50 to 100 anyhow. there is definitely a 'psychology' to share price, regardless of market cap I think we are around 30 right now, regardless of market cap because it fills a price gap in price per share between the big ones.. now anywhere from 60 to 300+ and the smaller, non-major startups.. from 3 to 15.. we have INPS sitting at 45.. but they are online.. (no comparison to WCTI's technology tho, IMO) but as soon as we go online, everything changes. IMO
