Any views on this:

"Many leading UK and US companies risk losing business

because of their failure to communicate effectively

via the internet, according to a survey. Only 71 of

the FTSE 100 companies could be contacted by e-mail

via their website and of these more than 20%,

including National Grid, P&O and Telewest failed to

respond to multiple requests for basic investor

information after three months."

Hardly world-shaking news, I suppose, but it seems

kind of ironic that when every big corporate worth its

salt is rushing to tie up with some sexy Internet

venture most of them can't even get the basics right.
