    It's certainly interesting. I would wait until I've heard more about what they're planning with their search advertising. Fastclick have a lot going for them, but they also suffer from really poor ads which are exactyly the kind that people strive to block. That and the fact that 43% of their revenue comes from just 10 clients makes it seem a bit risky.

    I just wanna add... I used to deal in stocks and shares quite regularly. Now I kinda feel that it's a bit pointless with the small sums of money I have to invest. I could invest $1000 in a new website and make a great ROI or I could invest $1000 in shares and probably not get the same level of return and could quite easily lose it all.

    If I had $10,000+ to play with on the stock market, that would be different as the return would be more significant. But I only ever invested in "penny stocks" on the Alternative Investment Market (which is growing massively!)

    10 publishers or advertisers?

    If advertisers I think it's easy to name some them:

    Ask Jeeves Inc (Owns smiley central)
    Hot Bar Inc
    UK Travel Services
