"GeoWorld not only enhances interaction among GeoCitizens and visitors but also offers a compelling 3-D visual environment that further enriches the experience of community life online" said GeoCities president David Bohnett.

In the 3-D realm of GeoWorld, residents enjoy public chat, group conversations and one-on-one discussions, in addition to being able to exchange personal, private and public online business cards, which can link to GeoCitizen home pages, Mr. Bohnett explained.

GeoWorld enables GeoCitizens to create avatars by which to represent images of themselves to others, as they move within a 3-D town square that anchors a community center for online public events. GeoWorld joins 24 GeoCities neighborhoods themed after Launches 3-D GeoWorld - 2 GeoCities real-world locations.
In each of these communities--with names like Silicon Valley, WallStreet, NapaValley and Broadway--GeoCitizens can create content reflecting their special interests.

Black Sun Interactive (www.blacksun.com), a leading developer of 3-D multi-user servers and authoring tools, is providing the VRML technology supporting GeoWorld, Mr. Bohnett said.

GeoCities, one of the most popular and largest collections of free home pages on the Web, attracts 34 million page views and l56 million hits a month, according to its latest Nielsen I/PRO audit. Free home pages and e-mail are among a long list of tools and benefits offered to GeoCitizens, who "homestead" in one of the GeoCities communities themed to their interests.

GeoCities has its headquarters at 9401 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills, CA 90212. The company and Black Sun Interactive are subsidiaries of CMG Information Services, Inc. (NASDAQ:CMGI), via its CMG@Ventures strategic investment and development business.
