The Carmel (CA) Group’s “Convergence Investor” newsletter projects that consumer market Web advertising will be a $17.3

In addition to delivering detailed 10-year Internet advertising growth and
revenue projections, this latest edition of “Convergence Investor” examines
the Internet strategies of major players such as Barnes & Noble, DoubleClick,
AOL and Yahoo! as they employ banner ads, sponsorships, interstitials and

The newsletter also lists more than 40 Congressional bills that could affect
the evolution of the Internet. These include measures dealing with copyright,
taxation, adult content and behavior, privacy, unsolicited e-mail, Internet
gambling, FCC regulation, encryption and the regulation of electronic
commerce.
