According to the Financial Times, “Lycos Europe, a vestige of one of the first internet search engines, is touting itself as a possible acquisition target for a US media or telecoms group seeking scale in Europe’s fragmented online markets.” Note to the company that buys Lycos: I just found an article through my WebCrawler that says Infoseek is for sale. Maybe with those two engines combined, you can make a bid for AltaVista or HotBot. Then it will just be you vs. Excite@Home. Good luck!
