Internet Daily for Thursday, September 20, 2001 by Frank Barnako CBS MarketWatch.com ----------------------------------------------------------------- InfiniteJustice.com site launched An upstate New York man posted InfiniteJustice.com Thursday, adopting the Defense Department's code name for its operation against terrorists. The Web site of Todd Bernhard, a former project manager for Sun Microsystems, includes a pre-disaster photo of the skyline of southern Manhattan and comments endorsing "previously forbidden (airline) mega-mergers, requiring bulletproof doors between airline pilots and their passengers, and baggage checks at train stations." In an email to CBS.MarketWatch.com, the thirtysomething Bernhard refused to be interviewed saying, "I'm not really looking for publicity." Bernhard registered his domain Wednesday. So was OperationInfiniteJustice.com, but apparently by another person. Bernhard said he had no firm plans for the site. "I've put up a kind of memorial page w/links and thoughts," he wrote. The site includes links to the Red Cross, charitable organizations and a multimedia program about the Towers' disaster. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft offers Passport to all Microsoft said Thursday it would open Passport, its Internet authentication service, to other companies. Passport is a service that allows Web users to load personal information into a database so that the data can be used by other Web sites for registration, purchases and other purposes. "The challenge of providing universal single sign-in is larger than any one company," said Bob Muglia, group vice president of NET Services at Microsoft. Passport will use a free network authentication technology developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology known as Kerberos. This could permit AOL Time Warner and Yahoo to establish similar services that would have access to compatible databases of information maintained by Microsoft. A Microsoft executive told Reuters this is "an invitation to AOL to interoperate." ----------------------------------------------------------------- Attacks dominate search requests Web-based inquiries relating to the Sept. 11 attacks have continued to soar, according to a spokesman for the search service at AltaVista. Sex usually ranks in the top 10, but has slipped to 17th place since the disaster, a Reuters report said. Google has seen the same pattern, reporting news topics such as CNN, FBI and American Red Cross have become more popular. Related searches can be found at Lycos and Google. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Travelocity expands to Europe Travelocity.com Inc. and Otto, a direct marketing firm, teamed up to form Travelocity Europe to sell travel products and services in Europe. Travelocity.com will draw from its European businesses while Otto will make use of its German travel company Travel Overland, reportedly one of the top five travel consolidators in Europe and a leading German online travel company. ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
