JPetronic,
I THINK, that this CANNOT NOT not happen.
When it happens, ... Neomedia will be pulling
everyone and everything to the toll booth.
My opinion.

I hope one day I get to meet success622.

beam11,
I just love good brains plying horizontal and vertical thinking.

Chartist1,
My fingers would like to thank you.
They are not bloody.

beam11.
If I was Bill Gates, I would purchase lots of shares of Neomedia also too.
neo.
You're wiz...
neo.
Sorry about the double you.
A human here.
We make mistakes.
Didn't make it at .42 though.
neo.
chartist1,
Let me first thank you for not letting me get bloody fingers.
You remember don't you you, when saying make sure of your intentions about buying at 42?
Or words to that effect.
Thank you again.
I do enjoy your absence of mysticism.

Iron grip control over everything that moves.
Keeps this board from becoming another RB.
Opinions are not facts.
My opinion... hee hee ha ha!

From the go window:

Is this new?
Sorry if posted before.

JP,
Neothinking presented analogically.
neo,
My opinion:
Neocheaters are appearing again.
They create problems where none exist.
I believe Neom is effecting iron grip control
in bringing about the company they've visualized.
BEFORE, applying ALL of the puzzle parts needed
for a super company.
It's called powerthinking neothink.

Business Week online :
Fox's Crafty New-Media Deal
Its affiliate stations will take a cut of revenues earned by making Fox Television programs available on the Web. Is this the new model?
At a time when a string of new deals to offer current TV shows on the Web and for video-on-demand is further straining relationships between broadcast networks and their affiliates, Fox Television has signed a deal allowing its roughly 150 affiliates to share a slice of the new-media pie, BusinessWeek has learned. The deal could serve as a model for other television networks, such as ABC. The Walt Disney-owned network (DIS) said on Apr. 10 that it plans to offer free, next-day downloads of some of its popular programs on its Web site (see BW Online, 4/11/06, "Disney's Internet Adventure").

Such moves have sparked an outcry from affiliate stations of ABC and the other big networks who fear their revenues will suffer if viewers have the alternative of watching shows on other platforms, including iTunes and mobile phones. Affiliates help publicize the programs, they argue, and should thus share in any extra revenues the shows generate.
"A NEGOTIATING CHIP." The agreement by Fox, owned by News Corp. (NWS), would allow stations to get a portion of the extra revenues for up to a year after they air a program. The precise percentage could not be learned.
"This is a way to get the affiliates to stop whining. It's a negotiating chip," says Josh Bernoff, an analyst with Forrester Research. "A network that doesn't do this will just have to deal with it sooner or later in negotiating renewals of affiliate agreements." The Fox pact was hammered out over the past several months by Fox Television President Ed Wilson and Brian Brady, chairman of the Fox affiliates and president of Northwest Broadcasting Corp., which owns several stations in Washington State, Oregon, and New York.
AGGRESSIVE MOVES. "This is a precedent-setting deal for the affiliates to be able to participate in the near term in revenues from reruns shown on platforms other than the stations," says Wade Hargrove, a media lawyer representing the affiliates. A Fox network spokesman declined to comment. News Corp., under Chairman Rupert Murdoch, has proven itself to be one of the most aggressive media companies on the Internet. In July, the company bought the fast-growing social networking site MySpace as part of a $580 million deal (see BW Online, 7/19/05, "News Corp.'s Place in MySpace"). More recently, Murdoch has been pushing to make DirecTV (DTV) a more significant provider of Internet services (see BW Online, 1/17/06, "Can Murdoch Win on the Web?").
In January, Fox announced that it would offer some of its network TV shows, including the Kiefer Sutherland hit 24 for up to a week after they aired nationally. The shows would be available for 99 cents to on-demand customers of DirecTV, the satellite service partly owned by News Corp.
RATTLED AFFILIATES. That arrangement infuriated Fox affiliates, say sources. Now Comcast (CMCSA), the nation's largest cable operator and a fierce competitor of DirecTV, is negotiating the same rights with Fox, BusinessWeek has learned. Affiliates would presumably share in any revenues from those deals under their new agreement.
Each week seems to bring another announcement that rankles TV affiliates across the country. (The networks have 1,700 local TV affiliates in the U.S. The four major networks own 128 of them directly).
It all started last November when Robert Iger, CEO of ABC parent Disney stunned the industry by saying ABC would offer hit shows like Desperate Housewives for sale on Apple's (AAPL) iTunes service a week or so after they aired on the network.
NOT NEW GROUND. NBC (GE) then made a similar deal, upsetting its own affiliates even more in February when it said it would launch its new legal drama Conviction on iTunes before it aired on broadcast TV. In March, CBS (CBS) offered NCAA tournament basketball games directly on the Internet, and has negotiated video-on-demand deals with Comcast to offer shows in markets where it owns the TV stations themselves.
For ABC, sharing revenue for reruns not shown on the network would not break new ground. In 1999, it reached an agreement with its affiliates to share revenues from soap operas shown again the same night on Disney's cable outlet SoapNet.

beam11,
You just gave the perfect example of wide scope accounting of everything that moves.
As NEOM. drives to completion of our Super company, insightful horizontal and vertical thinking as you've exhibited is very much appreciated by me and I'm sure by others on this board.
My opinion,
neo.
nutsoc,
I guess we just might become super rich like the super company.
Too much so, that the talent here will scatter.
It would be fantastic if we could gather the talent here and DD
the next big thing coming down the pike.
Maybe on the second LV rendezvous there could be such an attempt at DD-ing the next NEOM.
Let's not throw our power out the window.
neo.
notsoc,
You've just said the exact words I said last night to my nephew.
He had said I should have sold half of NEOM to buy XSNX.
Couldn't believe that someone who dealt in options/futures and
did some channel trading, could feel so much about a stock that has been running sideways for so long like NEOM.
Accused me of losing my edge.
Maybe so and maybe not.
neo.
donbalon,
A fantastic test.
Might get a reply in German
neo
chartist1,
I like your talent in the mind's ability to integrate reality as opposed to a mind trying to create reality.
Keep it up.
Removes mysticism.
neo.
chartist1,
I enjoy your neothinking.
eg: Visualizing the end result first, then powerthinking the actions next.
There's nothing like iron grip control over everything that moves.
neo.
When searching for something that cannot NOT happen.
Think of Neomedia -- when looking for a dynamic that cannot NOT happen.
neo,
Search...
Fantastic word, isn't it?
Most times the best thing one can do for irrationality is to leave it alone, but I like the iron grip control action that has been taken regarding the (imho) neocheater.
neo
Iron Grip Control must be maintained when neocheaters
surface on this board or it WILL become another RB imho.
neo.
Neocheaters create problems where none exsit.
It takes tremendous effort to be honest.
If one does not realize the effort required in being honest, it's quite possible one is not being honest.
They (neocheaters) will try truth, which can be twisted, stretched, etc to fit the mystical mind of a neocheater.
They tend to feed off of the producers of value.
IMHO
neo.
NEOCHEATING
A particularly hideous result of widespread mysticism is neocheating, a clever, two-step, poker-like process that allows the perpetrator to usurp money and power on a grand scale. The two-step maneuver is quite simple, yet almost always undetectable:
Promote a myth
Gain unearned values from those who accept the myth.
We've had a few examples lately of the above concept...
neo.
Also, let's not throw our power out the window.
We're fortunate to have a chartist here in Cahrtist1. DD'ers in SOG and others too many to name now.
Moderators that attempts to have iron gripe control
to keep this board from deteriorating into chaos.
Questioners like B and Z and others who ask and sometimes receive answers.
We need to acquire the thick skin syndrome and help drive this rocket to completion.
Just my opinion.
neo
A powerthinking neothinking machine.
Pun intended.
neo
Thought so, it's just that there are so many rumors about MS and Google and Fortune 100 possiblies.
neo
Explain please..

This board has displayed Iron Grip Control.
Horizontal and vertical thinking.
Wide scope accounting.
Fantastic deep drill down due diligence
And, end result powerthinking neothinking.
Neomedia visualized the end results first and went about gathering the different puzzle parts necessary.
And, now we're about to change our worlds.
I thank the moderators for my potential riches.
neo.
A Freudian slip?
Almost a verbatim post, IMO.
Neo Tech?
neo
Are we heading to this point?
Someone said it was maybe a ghost sale.
I thought it was a created gap.IMO
neo
Most sheeple will not allow themselves to think beyond their own mystical bubbles. IMO
Exactly!
neo
Horizontal and vertical thinking leading to wide scope accounting, ending in iron grip control over everything that moves.

"pink sheets" ?
Nah...
