Subject: Finding The News Online
I was surprised to see that in his excellent
article, Greg Knollenberg failed to mention
the world's most widely syndicated web-based
news service - 7am News (7am.com).
7am News now syndicates its news content to over
10,000 sites around the Web and delivers the news
over 750,000 times each day using "push to page"
technology.
Although relatively new to the news industry
(formed in December 1996), 7am News is growing
very quickly and now has correspondents in
5 countries who regularly file news reports
for our FreeWire service.
One of the reasons 7am News is not immediately
recognized as a significant force in the News
industry is that our content is often rebranded
or a component part of other people's web sites.
However, most Net users will have encountered
our 7am Live News ticker a number of times
on the Web and our other offerings are also
gaining a very rapid acceptance and widespread
distribution.

Subject: Book Giveaways
I have a website where I list giveaways.
I would like to post your site, but I
have not seen any deadline dates specified
for your giveaways. Perhaps you might
consider making the deadlines clear?
Thanks for your time.
