>in 1991, a fresh-faced CompuServe service dubbed ZDNet— Apparently the author of the article is not too familiar with Ziff Davis. (PCMag, etc) (from Wikipedia) In 1989, the company launched the ZDNet site. In 1991 ZDNet on CompuServe and on the fledgling Internet were augmented by the purchase of Public Brand Software, the leading shareware disk provider. In 1995 it launched the magazine Yahoo! Internet Life, initially as ZD Internet Life. The magazine was meant to accompany and complement the site Yahoo!. I picked up on it immediately because I was once a subscriber to several Ziff Davis publications. </tangent>
