                                    PART II

                INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

     The following documents and information previously filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") by InfoSpace, Inc. (the
"Company" or the "Registrant") are hereby incorporated by reference into this
Registration Statement:

          (1)  the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
     ended December 31, 2000, filed pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities
     Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act");

          (2)  the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the
     Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act on
     January 23, 2001; and

          (3)  the description of the Company's Common Stock contained in the
     Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A (File No. 000-25131), dated
     December 3, 1998, filed pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act,
     including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such
     description.

          All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections
     13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a
     post-effective amendment to this Form S-8 which indicates that all
     securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then
     remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this
     Registration Statement and to be part hereof from the date of filing of
     such documents.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

     Not Applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

     Not Applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to
award, or a corporation's board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors
and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under
certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses
incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act").  Further, in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law, the
Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the liability of a
director of the Company

                                      II-1


to the Company and its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of such
director's fiduciary duties in certain instances. The Restated Bylaws of the
Company (the "Restated Bylaws") provide for indemnification of certain agents to
the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Persons
covered by this indemnification include any current or former directors and
officers of the Company, as well as persons who serve at the request of the
Company as directors, officers, employees or agents of another enterprise. In
addition, the Company has entered into contractual agreements with each director
and certain officers of the Company, designated by the Company's board, to
indemnify such individuals to the full extent permitted by law. These agreements
also resolve certain procedural and substantive matters that are not covered, or
are covered in less detail, in the Restated Bylaws or by the Delaware General
Corporation Law. The Company also currently maintains officer and director
liability insurance.

Item 7.  Exemption From Registration Claimed.

     Not Applicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits.

* Incorporated by reference to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-
93167) filed by the registrant on December 21, 1999, as amended.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

(a)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include any material
information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the
Registration Statement;

     (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof; and

     (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered, which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.

                                      II-2


(b)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference into the
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
of 1933 and is therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                                      II-3


                                  SIGNATURES

     Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant
certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the
requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration
Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in the City of Bellevue, State of Washington, on this 4th day of
April, 2001.
