I wonder if there will be any changes--good or bad.
Companies they own include:
NetZero
Juno
NetZeroVoice
Freeservers
Bluelight internet service
PhotoSite
Classmates

So if you like these companies I guess it will probably be good and if you don't then it will probably be bad.

Last month they acquired Opobox for $10 million in cash
United Online, Inc. Acquires Opobox, Inc.
Acquisition of Namesdatabase.com Expands Company's Classmates Online Social Networking Unit
WOODLAND HILLS, Calif., March 20, 2006 -- United Online, Inc. (Nasdaq:UNTD), a leading provider of consumer Internet subscription services, announced today that its social networking subsidiary, Classmates Online, Inc., has acquired Opobox, Inc., which operates The Names Database at www.namesdatabase.com, for approximately $10 million in cash.

It really can't get too much worse than the redemption of Hilton Points lately can it?
