Judge OKs deep hyperlinking

LOS ANGELES (AP) - A federal judge ruled that online companies can legally
offer links to rival Web sites, a service many new Internet firms use to
attract new users.

The ruling was in favor of upstart Tickets.com, which was the defendant in a
lawsuit filed by Ticketmaster Online-CitySearch Inc. that alleged so-called
''hyperlinking'' should be banned.
