    Abstract
    In the light of InfoSeek's extremely lucrative contract with Disney, analyses how it has made such a success of developing an Internet business through advertising revenues, and the imporatnce of powerful search engines. Reports 2 other deals by Internet search companies: NBC's purchase of a minority stake in the portal Snap!, owned by the Computer Network, Inc. and Yahoo's acquisition of Internet Mall and Viaweb which enable it to launch Yahoo Store hosting commerce sites on behalf of other companies allowing them to sell over the Internet. Outlines the possible consequences for users of these developments and of the possibility of Internet startups selling up and quitting the scene

    Abstract
    Presents an overview of Wired Digital Inc.'s HotBot search engine, and ponders the future of the product, now that the company is being acquired by Lycos. Reviews the business strategy that drove Wired Digital to seek acquisition by a company capable of providing needed financial backing, technology infrastructure, and product development and marketing muscle. Lycos was interested in the property as part of its 'best-of-breed' acquisition plan for building out the new Lycos Network. Explores the likely scenarios for the HotBot product going forward under the Lycos brand, and expresses hope that Lycos will have the foresight to keep the attractive and sophisticated search engine well funded and developed
