Internet Daily for Tuesday, May 15, 2001 by Frank Barnako CBS MarketWatch.com ----------------------------------------------------------------- United, MSN in Net access deal UAL Corp.'s United Airlines and Microsoft's MSN announced a marketing deal Tuesday that will include the airline launching a co-branded Internet access service and a branded version of Microsoft's Explorer browser software. United will become MSN's "premier airline service provider" and be featured on its home page. The custom Explorer will allow United customers one-click access to their frequent flyer accounts, online booking, and flight and gate information. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Wireless deals Microsoft Corp. will deliver MSN content and services to Handspring's new Blazer Web browser for use in Visor personal digital assistants and other handheld devices using the Palm operating system. Blazer is priced at $19.95. The company says it allows access to virtually any site on the Internet, not just those tailored for mobile access. MSN Mobile provides the default home page on Blazer. Yahoo said Web-enabled telephone users can access personal finance information accounts established on the portal. The company said its mobile service allows users to view bank, brokerage and credit card account balances through Yahoo Finance. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Juno profits from politics Juno Online Services Inc. has found it can charge higher prices for its online political ads because they get responses. "We have been able to hold steady or raise our rates while increasing our client base," Roger A. Stone, a Juno vice president and director of the company's advocacy network unit, told the Dow Jones Newswires. The ads most often encourage readers to send issues-oriented e-mails to members of Congress or federal administrators. Such ad sales have doubled each year since 1998, Stone said. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ask Jeeves' top questions Driving directions, someone's e-mail address and "how much is that French franc worth in real money?" were the most popular queries at AskJeeves.com last month. Consumer comparison shopping questions also made the top 10 list, including searches for the best deals on used cars and airfare specials. "Where can I find pictures of the latest hair styles?" was the 10th-most-asked question. ----------------------------------------------------------------- For late-breaking market news you can't afford to miss, go to http://CBS.MarketWatch.com/ ################################################################# Log in using the links below to: Access your account: https://investing.schwab.com/trading/start?SANC=CCBodyi&NeedCASelValue=Y View your Email Alert customization options: https://investing.schwab.com/trading/start?SANC=EAMyAlerts Perform research or request a market quote: https://investing.schwab.com/trading/start?SANC=Quotes Place a trade order: https://investing.schwab.com/trading/start?SANC=TradeStock To visit Schwab's home page, use this link: http://www.schwab.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe or modify your Email Alert customization options, log in using the link below or copy and paste it into your browser's address window: https://investing.schwab.com/trading/start?SANC=EAMyAlerts Now you can receive graphics Email Alerts in HTML format, using helpful, full-color graphics and active Web links that connect you directly to information you want.
