On the subject of VERT, I believe they will go pay service, like a flat monthly fee, Advertising fee should be part of it.

Steve: Do you have any thoughts on PROG, Programmers Paradise. They are historically a catalog retailer selling to the software developer community, but are moving aggressively to the internet. They had sales last year of $238 million, internet sales are increasing at triple digits. Their most recent move seems to be to become a home on the internet for the professional developer community. Check out their newest website at programmersdirectory.com Over half of their sales are from europe. They are profitable and currently have a PE of about 18 based on last year. They are currently priced around 12, and expect to earn $.85 this year, giving them a current PE of 14. One last thing. Their current market cap is around $50 million.

wouldn't NTXY be an attractive acquisition, just based on current ranking at #29 in the hot 100? (and relatively small market cap compared to other communities like TGLO, XMCM, GCTY)...for a co. such as GNET for example, that has been successful building it's growth thru acquisitions like SI and the hot100. It seems like there is so much value just purely due to traffic on the net now, that either a co. wanting to increase its 'market share' of internet traffic, or a late comer wanting to gain a presence would be attracted to a co. like NTXY.
