Here's a story of how MSFT plans an ICQ competitive product.

"Shooting AOL's Messenger"
wired.com

It was only a matter of time before MSFT did this. However, the installed base of ICQ might be too big to counter.

Long on both MSFT & AOL.

Cheers,

James

AOL should once again prove themselves the king of Interent earnings and growth. Then the rocket will resume.

More from Cramer... (no, I don't love him, but still read him.. lol)

"Random musings: Jeff notices that we are now
getting into an old-Web/new-Web dichotomy where
the old Web (Yahoo! (YHOO:Nasdaq) and AOL
(AOL:NYSE)) underperforms the new. I hope this
is a short-term observation."

(Just trying to make sense out of today's action)
