:) Yes, I agree. GoTo should have just accepted that
they aren't going to get 5 cents or better on every
single keyword, which is what they are now trying to do.
Some keywords will never be bought at all, i.e. "big
compact cars" :) Some keywords may be bought at a
penny b/c they are relevant to a company, but not a
company's primary business (yet they would at least like
to be listed). Those keywords will now never be bought
(at 5 cents)... Just another thought. Take care,
