EU internet governance plan gains US support With only a day left for the UN world summit on information to kick off in Tunis, a European Union compromise proposal on how to govern the internet is gaining international support, Brussels says. Roughly 15,000 delegates and more than 50 heads of state are due to attend the three-day long summit in the Tunisian capital on Wednesday (16 November), with the ambition of ending five years of negotiations on the high stakes topic. "Our proposal has been applauded by countries like the US and Saudi-Arabia," a European Commission spokesperson said on Tuesday, hinting that a final agreement might be in sight. The EU proposal aims at internationalising the governance of the internet, finding a formula under which governments share control over issues like spam, cyber crime and world wide access, without setting up new bureaucratic institutions. Up until now the world wide web has been governed by the California-based organisation Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, (Icann), which has the power to suspend whole countries' internet services at will. Icann itself is overseen by the US ' commerce department. Members of the US House of Representatives said in October that the US should resist international pressure to give up authority over key internet functions. US officials explained that because of the internet’s importance to the world economy, the governance system had to "remain stable and secure," insisting that the US maintain its historic role. The EU has argued that, for the same reasons, the internet should be more democratic, calling for "the establishment of an arbitration and dispute resolution mechanism based on international law in case of disputes." Countries such as Iran , China and Cuba would like to have individual state control over the internet, however, with Brazil threatening to create its own regional web if US dominance is not broken. The contract between Icann and the US commerce department runs out at the end of next year, prompting a global rush for tenders to take over Icann's job. Ironically, the summit is in danger of being overshadowed by the host regime's flagrant disrespect of the very same liberties the summit intends to safeguard - but in real life instead of cyberspace. On Monday (14 November) members of Human Rights Watch and other NGOs reported that Tunisian policemen prevented them from participating in a preparatory meeting for an alternative "fringe summit." On top of this, a reporter from French newspaper Liberation, investigating human rights abuses in Tunis , was stabbed and beaten in a central neighbourhood of the capital last Friday. And the Belgian television station RTBF said on Monday that one of its cameraman had been harassed and forced out of his car with his camera and video cassette confiscated. The commission said on Tuesday that the EU has expressed concerns about the events to its Tunisian hosts. Tunisia has been governed by president Zine Abidine Ben Ali since 1987, with human rights organisations repeatedly criticising the regime for torture and curbs on free speech, including jail sentences for people involved in internet-based publications.

Woo hoo! I just bought 250k at .0003 (yes, that's like $75... all I can afford). Order got placed FAAAAST!
Question... let's say we lose this contract. If we do, what else do we have going for us? Is there still hope after this contract if it is lost? I seem to remember that there was another contract or two. Does this company have a steady source of income, barring any new contracts? What's the dillio?

im a huge bag holder on this, all my shares at .0003, its actually impossible to get filled at .0002, trust me, all those shares you see going in at that price are insiders buying, shares and people taking positions, trust me on this, because I emailed Kobi about my frustrations about not getting in at that price, and having an order for 6 months!! yes 6 months and not getting filled at that price, plus it's a pink sheet stock so it's selective too, try either .0003 or .0004, either way you will may good coin, but I would suggest/caution, extremely risky this play, based on that fact that they arent guaranteed to split,
Kobi sent me an email that the other company is larger, and more developed, wouldnt give the name of it, but he hopes they dont take the full thing, of course he can only hope as CEO he wins it all!!!! i say this could honestly do a 1000% run on the day of the news IMO, like GLIF or some of the others, i have about 30 grand in this?
I guess I hope if I can make 500% on 30 grand I'll take a month of or so and pay off the rest of my mortgage, who knows, this is a total long shot stock,

the one thing that annoys me is the date, he wont give me a bloody date that the news will be issued, if they dont get the contract? hmmm I would say alot of bag holders will be hugely frustrated and holding, kicking and screaming!!! or just dump and we see .0001 maybe something even less? hard to say, I don't think anyone would sell, at that ugly of a price, I got eager throughout the last 6 months and probably brought more that I should have, a 300 million EURO contract is still around what? 450 million USD? something silly? either way, I can't find the O/S what is the number, and what is the float? if anyone can please find it I would be super grateful, there was news/rumor on moving to the OTC, I wish they had done that, I still question how many people will play a pink sheet stock on strong news? how many investors will really touch this, or will someone try and screw with it? I sure hope not

You can click on each link at the page and see examples of their work. As a web developer, I'd say that their work is decent. Not incredible, but definitely professional and up to snuff.

Ok, this is a little confusing/concerning. On the site, it says: "Should you have any comments or questions, please don't hesitate to contact us at invest*interage.com"
So I thought... cool... interage must be their site too. But if you go to http://www.interage.com, it's obviously not theirs.
In fact, here's who owns interage.com: Registrant: Make this info private Maximum Interactive P.O. Box 94 Pomona, NY 10970 US
Domain Name: INTERAGE.COM
Administrative Contact , Technical Contact : Marshall, Mark ** mmarshall*MAXIMUMINTERACTIVE.COM 41 Main Street 3rd Floor Nyack, NY 10970 US Phone: 845-480-5573 Fax: 845-480-5573
Record expires on 07-Jul-2006 Record created on 08-Jul-1997 Database last updated on 06-Jul-2005
Then I did a lookup on id-knowledge.com. They've had their domain since Aug. 8, 2000. Notice though that interage.com has been owned by this other person since 1997. So why does id-knowledge.com reference interage.com? Are they related in any way? Interesting. I'll have to send an email to the email address above and see if I get any answers on how/if these two sites are related. Why am I looking into this? Guess I'm just bored. But DD is DD is DD, I always say...

Dear Mr. ********** It looks like my answer to you from 9\26\05 came back due to a problem in your email (Overquota), so I will send it to you again now.
InterAge is an operative company since 1995, so I trust you can understand that it is just a mater of time until the share will reach its real value.
The stagnation for some time now is due to the fact that we had to change our transfer agent few weeks ago.
I think that it is better for you to wait some time (not to long).
