Subject: UKNM: Is it a Portal or a HUB??
From: Paul O'donoghue

At the "Lycos (its a sales pitch in disguise) UK Online Advertising
Conference" this week, Lycos announced that they are not a Portal
anymore but a "HUB".

After the laughter died down the difference was explained; a portal
takes you somewhere/gives you access but a HUB will take you somewhere
and keep you within the service as a customer/user, thus reducing the
churn!
