Transcript of Video Presentation

In any given place of the Universe, dawn is and always will be dawn

And yet the world has changed so much.

Could we possibly see the sunrise of the other side of the world being on
this side.

Neither space, nor time exist.

Only communication lives on.

A communication that overcomes its limits by the minutes.

Culture, education, science, belonging equally to all more and more. No
matter where we are from, or where we are. Nor our color, sex or religion.

We can meet, speak, get to know each other, share experience, dreams and
feelings. Contribute to another by merely wishing to do so.

Now different worlds can be enjoined in a new world.

Internet has changed our lives.

Nothing has ever drawn the human being so much together as the wonder of
feeling connected through the net with a simple strike of a finger.

And now, Terra Lycos arrives to enhance the very essence of the Internet.
Communication amongs people and cultures of different places throughout the
world.

The multicultural corporation is born, open to all, making the wonderful
adventure of life more fulfilling.
