Haven't watched the stock or the site in a few days.

Pharm... So you're flying to San Diego... where were you?

Great detective work from BB & Diana and many more. Thank-you!

Per the suggestions from 5-27-04, I've been sending e-mails to newspapers one at a time (copy & paste). Mainly just suggesting they check out how long Triangle Network & QTV have been working through sweat & tears to get this programming launched. Copied the PR and put Triangle Network's and Deveney's telephone number in the email hoping anyone interested would telephone them directly rather then email me... I'm not that confident in my knowledge of QTV to talk off the tip of my tongue!!

Best Wishes to everyone!

Hi!

The consensus is LOGO is still aiming for February 2005 launch. I'm sure we'll all be checking on them every now & then!

Anyway... look on page 1 of this thread, pennytrader comment & then Winsumlosesum (posted May 28 2004, 10:30) gave us an article to read where it shows Feb 2005 launch, but a mid-July programming sample guide or something like that... read the article Winsumlosesum highlights for us and you'll see where their dates could be misread.

Then read following post by Dakota's Missus and AF1 for their follow-up to that article.

Do your own DD though to see if you come up with anything else! But for now, February 2005 looks like the plan for LOGO launch.

Q-Television is made by the gay comminuty for the gay community. I do believe it will take them longer to become a great channel than it would take viacoms' mtv, however I also believe they have the support of the gay community. They will launch and they will succeed! Here is a link of an article I found. I know this has been posted but I am also posting responses to this article from the gay financial networks site.
****************************
Q TV Will Debut in July
May 26, 2004
Gfn.com News

The Q Television Network, a subscriber channel for the gay and lesbian market will beat Logo to the airwaves when it debuts in July 2004, with a "soft" launch for advertisers set for June 1.

The Q Television Network says it will offer a combination of original and acquired programming, including sports, fashion, travel, health & fitness, talk shows, plays, documentaries and movies.

Programming will include “I Will, I Do, We Did,” an original Q Television documentary exploring gay and lesbian marriage in America. The company says the independent films, “An Intimate Friendship," “Straightman,” and Bette Midler’s “Divine Madness” concert are examples of what will be available on the network.

The company's programming will be available on a subscription basis. Beginning June 1, the network will be available for viewing on Intelsat America’s 7, 129 degrees West, Channel 1.

We asked for it... we got it!!! Is time for us to step up and support Qtelevision.... might as well make a few bucks ourselves. Buy the stock (QBID) you'll make more than enough money to to subscribe to OUR station. Its not about the big guy (MTV) lining their pockets, its about us! Its family time! Programming for the gay community. Pride all year long. Imagine that.

O.K. Guys and gals, I think we have a "movement" on our hands! And we're good at standing up for what we want! QTV is for US, MTV is a crock from a bunch of money hounds! Tell evryone you know that we need to support Q television--and shun LOGO, this is BS! MTV is just jumping on the bandwagon--The Q is our "David" and he's looking mighty cute! SUPPORT Q TELEVISON--By gays for gays--They launch officially on JULY 1, GET THE WORD OUT BOYS AND GIRLS! GAY and very PROUD of QTV!www.qtelevison.com--SO excited!

I completely agree!!! MTV didn't do anything for 2 years with their launch, now all of a sudden, they want to copy from the Q-Network!!

The Q-Network is the only network to watch if you want real, quality programming.

By, for, and from the Gay Community

Call your local Satellite, Cable companies and request THE Q-NETWORK!!

4.) for the people...

May 27, 2004

for the people by the people = Qtelevision. Once again its up to the community to support our own! Viacom and MTV taking there time (2005), but nonetheless, trying to get our gay dollars. At least Qtelevision is gay owned.

May 27, 2004

yes ur absolutely correct. as a gay male i will NOT support in any Gay station from MTV. Growing up watching MTV, i realized early on they were very explotive. From the research i've done into Qtv...it has been the dream of the CEO's for manny many years to bring Qtv to HIS people...Qtv is "family" owned...i'm not interested in lining the pockets of a mostly straight organization...MTV...i want my Gay TV produced FOR GAYS BY GAYS...cant wait...QTV!!! ;D

If your interested in supporting this endevour and making some money as well, buy some stock now. It's still an inexpensive penny stock right now and trades under the symbol qbid.pk It won't stay inexpensive for long, once it starts broadcasting 24/7. Enjoy.......<--- probably someone from this board =)

Another stock pumper.

QBID, also known as Triangle Television Network has been trying to launch a gay network for years. It has had a number of fake launches, it has ripped off the gay media, and has been doing nothing but selling stock for years. It has no content. The corporation operates in Calif. and doesn't even legally exist there. This has always been a penny stock fraud. Maybe they will pull it off this time, but their track record is not good. <--- who needs him? moron!!!

Hi Dan,

Good points. I looked into it and yes they have had previous problems in the past... In particular, the last situation came around the time of the 911 tragedy. I think it's safe to say that around that time lots of businesses had trouble. So it is completely understandable why it would have been detrimental for them to launch at that time. But now seems to be the perfect time for this to happen (gay marriages and all) and with MTV not launching until next year, MTV is allowing QTV to run with this for at least 8 months before MTV launches on thier predicted date of Feb, 2005, thus missing out on current news.

I find it particularly funny that recently they (MTV) announced that it was not lucrative for them to start a gay network... Now it seems they're riding off of the vision QTV had years ago. I sure hope QTV launches as it will be a sincere gay network runned by gay indviduals and not just a money making venture from corporate America.

Anyhow, we'll find out this Tuesday whether QTV will have thier act together or not, as they will be doing an industry soft launch. This Tuesday will be quite telling!

Matt

I hate to admit this, but I didn't realize Frank was gay. In my mind, that SEALS THE DEAL! If it's humanly possible, Frank will make this work. He's not just doing it for money, IMHO...he's wanting to MAKE A DIFFERENCE in his community. I, for one, applaud his efforts and am very proud to be a part of this endeavor. All of us want to leave a mark that says we were here...this is Frank's way of doing it his way. Way to go Frank!!

DarDog, Thanks for your response!

Actually I was just asking for "HALF" of One Percent of 500 Billion Bucks! That would be "only" (LOL) Two & a Half Billion Dollars> But the really important question would be does anyone think we can draw that kind of revenue. I genuinely believe we can.
Wonder what revenues of 2.5 billion would do to our share price?

On page 27 of the new Entertainment weekly in the upper right hand corner, there is an article titled "Queer Channel" and it's about LOGO! Apparently, they will be revealing their full lineup in July and has more than 40 original programs in development.

I think we need to e-mail some feedback to them. They have a letters to the editor page near the front of the magazine. Maybe they will print our letters if enough of us write them to tell them about Qtelevision and that MTV's LOGO is in fact not the first gay channel.

Here is their e-mail:

June 1st - Opens at .02 but fills the gap during the day and closes lower.
June 2nd - Closes up 20%
End of week closes at a PPS of .027

Did anyone see George Michael (from Wham) on Oprah last week? He finally came clean about his naughty bathroom fiasco. Basically, the undercover cop was 'pleasuring himself' and giving George the eye. George says 'So, I responded in kind' (whatever that means). The climate has changed. The women in the audience were swooning before his confession and didn't blink after. They loved him!!! They accepted him. It's a whole new world, where a career isn't ended by this news. In fact, this was the first step in his comeback. He was promoting his new CD. He also brought along his mate-of-8-years. Yes, a guy. I think his name was Farmboy or something.

Companies Lauch Gay TV Station

Triangle MultiMedia hopes to have the network ready for a soft launch in mid-May 2004.

By Lisa Johnson


PALM SPRINGS, CA
You knew it was coming. Gay TV has finally arrived. Triangle MultiMedia Ltd., Inc. (QBID) just announced the creation of a new television network. This 24-hour channel will feature a broad spectrum of programming directed at gay and lesbian audiences.

The network will feature original plays, motion pictures, series and documentaries as well as sports, travel and lifestyle programming combined with live news broadcasts and specials. Triangle MultiMedia Ltd, Inc. has contracted with Network Teleports Inc. and its president Barbara Lamont to coordinate the launch, webcasting and satellite uplink on a popular C-band cable bird whose footprint reaches all of North America.

Providing all technical and programming aspects are met, the network will have a "soft" launch by middle May 2004, running one-hour sampler programming blocks in various dayparts to give cable operators a chance to preview the network. Regular programming will begin transmission via satellite and will be available as a subscription channel on selected cable systems once all transmission issues have been resolved.

posted May 30, 2004 13:59            

On another note, Just like the 2 music channels VH1 & MTV play music but are totally different; it will be just like that with QTV and "LOGO".

What am I still doing here? I should be eating a burger!

If you live on the East Coast ENJOY THE BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!

One of the things that makes me happy is that Frank grabbed the name "QTV" and now, in retrospect, I think he knew that competition was coming when he did it. MTV would (my opinion only) almost certainly have grabbed that name and blitzed the media with "I want my QTV!" ads piggybacking on their former MTV campaign's success. It's a natural. I think Frank deserves credit for pulling off a major coup with this move. When he first did it, I was like "Huh??? I like Triangle!...why switch horses in midstream?" but at the time we had no knowledge that MTV was planning anything so soon. But I bet Frank did, and he pulled the trigger before they knew what hit them. Now they are stuck with "Logo" which is an empty generic name with no meaning whatsoever, no branding appeal, and no punch. MTV is stuck with "Ha!" to Frank's "Comedy Central", to resurrect my earlier analogy. People will hear "MTV is launching a gay network, and when they see QTV they will assume that's the one to get. MTV is unwittingly aiding us more they they can imagine. I'm stopping any more emailing to enlighten everyone to the facts because what that's doing is helping delineate MTV from QTV, and being first to market we don't actually want that. Logo is coming, we can't stop that. But, I've decided that this confusion in the marketplace is going to be our best friend right now and we should let it ride. MTV creates gay-channel awareness while we're pumping product onto the market months ahead of them. What could be a more elegant marketing plan than that? Might be why Deveney is being silent, too, cuz they know it.
Like I said, just IMHO.

I helped put out the Q-Channel Message this weekend, did any of you try to spread the word as well. ????
I and a Friend put on our Q-Television Network T-Shirts and just walked down the Asbury Park N.J. Boardwalk, guess what happen ??, in no less then 15-Minutes I had two people come up to us asking us is that the QBID stock they have been hearing a lot about through friends of theirs, we said yes it is, and then i told one I already am UP some 15,000 % percent on my stock investment already with QBID, since i bought in last year.
He said He would talk to his stock broker on Tuesday about buying into QBID.
I also gave out 20-Q-Channel Flyers with all the Info one would need to make a decision about Buying QBID at a Big Party I went to.
I got a excellant response, in fact 3-Ladies I gave the Flyers to already heard of QBID.
So the word is now getting out people, But wait till Deveney steps in and does the 16-City Media Blitz, through Radio, TV &Newspaper ads etc, then the world will know about our Q In no time. so lets all try and get the Q-Word out O.K. , Go QBID in 2004 $$$$$$$$$$
