[rss.com.com...] | Terra Lycos named a new head of U.S. operations and a new advertising executive Wednesday, following the resignation of its U.S. president, Stephen Killeen. Killeen, who joined the company less than two years ago, was replaced by Mark Stoever, former general manager of Terra Lycos' worldwide media-products unit. Stoever, a six-year veteran of the former Lycos, will become executive vice president of Terra Lycos U.S., a company representative said. |

>>focused on specific areas such as Web searches... It will be interesting to see what they do at both Lycos and HotBot for search. Or will they consolidate the two?

Where they are heading:
[webmasterworld.com...] It's services, as opposed to advertizing revenues. Lycos has already started going down this route. But the company still is deep in the red.
