SEC Suspends Trading Of 35 Companies Touted In Spam Email Campaigns - Thank-You SEC!

March 10th, 2007

Good morning to you all. On behalf of AGORACOM and everyone we know in the small-cap space, we applaud and thank the SEC for its announcement yesterday. As an advocate of legitimate small-cap companies across North America, we have done our part in drawing attention to this very serious problem which is tainting an entire industry of legitimate small and micro-cap companies that do not engage in such practices.

To this end, I gave a keynote speach on this very matter at the PIPEs Conference in New York this past November, titled “E-Mail Promotion Is Dead - How To Conduct Great Investor Relations In A Web 2.0 World” in front of more than 100 investment bankers. Reaction to the speach was so positive tha we made it available by webcast for everyone to view:

We hope this is just the beginning of things to come out of the SEC.

Best,
George

PDAC Goes YouTube! 7,700 Views To Date

The world’s biggest mining conference has now been YouTubed and the results are fantastic, with over 7,700 views of our interviews with Peter Grandich, Paul Van Eeden and Gerri Paxton of Palmarejo. 

In the process, YouTube awarded our AGORACOMIR “guru” channel with several honors for number of views and new subscribers on both individual days and over the entire week. 

This small experiment bodes very well for the future of online video in the small-cap world, so look for us to significantly increase coverage beginning the with Calgary Gold Show at the end of this month.
