Funny thing--recently every new site on my bookmark list
shows up magically in the news after a couple of weeks. I swear
I am going to have encrypting my bookmarks or something. As for
mail.com, any company that describes themselves as a player....I guess
it's okay if you get to define the sandbox. They claim they've established
millions of mailboxes for their clients, but I wonder how many are actually
being used?

Internet messaging services company Mail.com today said
it has acquired Lansoft, a provider of corporate email and
Web hosting services, to accelerate its penetration in the
business messaging market.
The terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Lansoft, based in Columbus, Ohio, brings about 690
corporate customers to Mail.com, which is hoping the
acquisition will also help to boost its technical presence in
the corporate messaging arena.
"This transaction is consistent with our strategy to acquire
companies with a complementary business to business
team and established customer base to accelerate our penetration of the business messaging
market," Gerald Gorman, Mail.com's chief executive, said in a statement.
