| Our own back-of-the-napkin deal scribbles goes like this:
AT&T + Yahoo; Sprint + Earthlink + Excite; MCI + Mindspring + Lycos; NBC + CNET 100%; Time Warner + AOL; IBM or Sun + Netscape.
Mix and match any of them but we think within 18 months the Webscape could look more like a mix of old and new world, those that thought the world was flat (the pre-Internet telcos and media companies) and now see it's getting rounder (more Internet users everyday in every way).
The giddiness that a geekfest may happen sends ISDEX, The Internet Stock Index, up nearly 2% to 145.32. See the ISDEX link for a look at the individual stocks in this 50-strong group.
