Dear CNET Networks, Inc. Employee:

         Unfortunately, your Election Concerning Exchange of Stock Options form
regarding the Stock Option Exchange Program was either inaccurate or incomplete
and was not accepted by CNET. If you wish to exchange any of your eligible stock
options, you must submit a new Election Concerning Exchange of Stock Options
form, listing the options you elect to have exchanged and cancelled. A blank
form may be printed from http://offline.cnet.com/. Julie Hata, in the Human
Resources Department for CNET Networks, Inc. in the San Francisco office must be
in receipt of a completed election form before 9:00 p.m. Pacific Time on Friday,
July 26, 2002, unless the offer is extended. If we do not receive an accurate
and complete election form from you before the deadline, all stock options
currently held by you will remain intact at their original price and original
terms.

         If you have any questions, please contact Julie Hata at
julie.hata@cnet.com or at 415-344-2462.

         Thank you.
