CLICKZ -- Oct 4 -- Lycos launches "social interaction platform" Planet,
adapted from an offering by corporate parent Daum Communications. Users
can create a mini site, or "planet," without any HTML coding; blog,
photo upload, slide shows. The U.S. version of Planet is being
launched on Lycos' Angelfire
community, made up of 10 million teens andyoung adults, and Tripod with 12 million users. Daum has been
successful with its version of Planet in Korea, building up more than 8
million users in the first year. Terra sold off its U.S. operations to
South Korean online media group Daum Communications last August for a
paltry $545 million. Lycos launched Circles in October 2004, but
discontinued it a few months later. Lycos then launched a dating search engine. FULL ARTICLE @ CLICKZ
