...product was eccentric, so was the peddling, what Artisan co-president Amir Malin calls "guerrilla marketing tactics." Blair Witch's creative team, known as Haxan Films, hustled the movie's clips onto John Pierson's Split Screen cable show, premiered its trailer on the insider Ain't It Cool News website and launched its own site, www.blairwitch.com which, on an eventual investment of $15,000, had racked up 75 million hits by week's end. If Artisan can create an avid audience on cable and in cyberspace, why is Fox or Warner Bros. spending tens of millions advertising...

Now he?s coyly hinting about pulling the ultimate anti-Reagan as an actor running for President -? from somewhere to the left of Bill Bradley. "It?s no secret that I am a liberal Democrat," told the New York Times on Wednesday, making...

Puny humans felt a collective shiver across Europe and Asia Wednesday as nature served notice of its potency. For two dark, cool and eerie daytime minutes, the sun was a black hole in the sky as the moon shuttered parts of the earth from its rays. And hundreds of millions of people from England to India dropped everything to behold the power -? most evident by its absence -? of the star?s light. Even as thick cloud obscured many in Britain and Western Europe from a clear view of the last solar eclipse of the millennium, the masses crowding beaches, city...

...probably know them as the outfit that made the Austin Powers browser. When you install NeoPlanet's software (it's free, but you need to have a PC running Internet Explorer 4.0) what it does, essentially, is bury your copy of IE inside a new improved interface. The cool thing is, NeoPlanet's interface is better. MORE...
