In response to message posted by Hugs:Good find Hugs and welcome back.
People might want to take a good look at the SEC documents and get an idea of why Mitch Blumberg was brought into Suite101.com. Take a good look at his education too... Pretty impressive guy.

Suite101.com to Demonstrate Unique Online Publishing Model with Writing Contest
"Look Who's Brewing Good Copy," Bradshaw says
VANCOUVER, Feb. 1 /PRNewswire/ - Suite101.com, Inc. (OTC BB: BOWG), the online publishing community of real people helping real people, announced today that it will host a Short 'n Suite Writing Contest to demonstrate the company's unique, online publishing model, its enabling platform. The contest, featuring original short works of 1,200 to 2,000 words on the theme of how the Internet has touched the lives of writers, will run for six weeks beginning February 1, 2001, with winners to be announced May 1, 2001.
``Suite101.com was founded in 1996 on the concept of self-expression,'' said Julie Bradshaw, Managing Director of Suite101.com. ``We recognized that the Internet was the first medium that allowed 'real people' to have a say. We have since learned that self-expression is more than an opportunity -- it is a need. We have also learned that, while the Internet allows anyone to publish, not everyone is a writer!''
``It's like making a good cup of java,'' Bradshaw continued. ``What separates the 'coffee from the grinds' is a filter. And, like coffee, we believe that the Internet's vast potential is best percolated -- organic content filtered through Suite's enabling platform. Currently, Suite's editorial team vets hundreds of editor applications and mentors hundreds of applicants each month. Our over 1,300 Editors also edit and approve almost 3,000 articles every month.''
Today an article. Tomorrow a short story. Maybe some day, a novel.
The entries to the Short 'n Suite contest will be filtered through a panel of Suite101.com Senior and Managing Editors who will review the submissions for originality, emotional impact and overall quality. This filtering process will yield a short-list of twenty submissions. A celebrity panel of judges will choose the top three submissions from the short-listed twenty.
``There is a sea of talented writers who are mostly being ignored by traditional publishers,'' said Jason Pamer, Suite101.com's Editor-in-Chief. ``By using this unique judging process, the Short 'n Suite Writing Contest showcases Suite101.com's 'enabling platform' -- a 'bottom up' peer review model whereby the best work rises to the top and is filtered through our editorial team. This enabling platform allows the Suite101.com community to filter a large number of submissions while maintaining a high-quality product.''
Winners of the contest will be invited to attend the BookExpo America in Chicago, June 1st to 3rd, 2001, to participate in a signing of the commemorative anthology that will include the top 20 submissions to the contest.
The contest will run from February 1st, 2001, until March 15th or until 500 submissions are received. Full contest details are available at www.suite101.com.
In Other Suite News: Loblaw Appointed Chief Operating Officer
Suite101.com also announced today the appointment of Doug Loblaw as Chief Operating Officer. Loblaw, who joined the company in June, 2000, was previously Director of Operations.
``We brought Doug on to help direct the company's growth and development plans in the coming years,'' said Peter Bradshaw, President and CEO of Suite101.com. ``His work over the past seven months has proven to be a real asset to the company already.''
Loblaw has more than 30 years of management experience in both the private and public sectors. For 12 years, Loblaw was part of the sales and marketing group of Scott Paper Ltd, rising to National Product Manager, Consumer Products Division. He also owned and managed a marketing consulting firm, Marketeam Canada Ltd.
Most recently, Loblaw was the Chair of Business at Capilano College in North Vancouver, capping off a career of more than 24 years as an instructor in marketing, advertising and entrepreneurship. In 1997, Loblaw was appointed as Project Manager for a special international education program that is based on the Canadian College Cooperative Education model. The program helped establish a new private university near Beirut, Lebanon.
Loblaw remains a member of the Distance Education faculty at British Columbia's Open University/College. He has been associated with the founding members of Suite101.com for many years and has contributed to several other Bradshaw family enterprises. Loblaw has a BA in French from the University of Toronto.

» Jonathon - .18 Cents
I noticed that stock in suite101 is trading at about 18 cents per share today. I was thinking of picking up a 1000 shares for $180 + about $20 commission for a $200 purchase. I have certainly bet more on the horses.Anyone have a feel for where this stock is going? I would think there might be more discussion on this thread about suite101's stock. Thanks

» SteveT - Re: .18 Cents
In response to message posted by Jonathon:Jonathon the last 1000 shares I bought I paid considerably more than $200. I am not worried. As with any investment learn all you can about the company management, and business plan etc. This would by most people be considered a high risk/speculative investment. OK as long as you limit your exposure to a very small percentage of your total portfolio.
I am particularly impressed with this company and the track record of the upper management. The business plan is pretty straight forward and easy to understand, who knows it just might work
A much different plan than most of the other dotcoms.
