United Online is a "mini-conglomerate" consisting of one decent business, FTD, and two in long-term decline, Classmates and NetZero. A low valuation and a nice dividend yield may make it an interesting look for some MFI investors.

Nice small cap to add to my portfolio. Picking up FTD might help biz. I like the fact that they decided to pay more cash for it. Pays a modest div for the price. At a low that looks attractive to me right now. It will probably take a couple good years to make a decent gain.

Change is coming to dial-up. Someone smart will merge UNTD and Earthlink and just inherit AOL's customers by default. Classmates for all its detractors makes money.

Internet company, trying to sell an IPO,
is not this the blind leading the blind, they failed to make the stock holders who purchased at there IPO rich. so now they are getting into the IPO business,
the name united online, stinks sounds just like America online, makes me think of failure.

United Online is the owner of Net Zero and Juno internet service providers. It is also the parent of Classmates which is a social networking site that it plans to spin off this week. United plans to keep the majority of Classmates and to continue to control the voting stock. I believe that Classmates has upside potential and think holding the majority of it it is a wise business decision while allowing the company to realize a portion of its gains on investment. In the meantime if the recession is as deep as I believe it will be, people will probably be switching from higher priced internet service providers to a more economical model--such as Juno and NetZero. In the meantime the dividend yield in over 7% and the company has no debt so the dividend should be safe.

Dial-up provider is sitting on a giant community asset in Classmates.com. These guys will be bought in the next 18 months. Potential buyers are Google and Yahoo, who can quickly integrate the community, and gain a cash generating dial-up business.

I wish there was a selection for indicating that they will likely perform about the same as the S&P because that is actually what I think. But if forced to pick either under/over perform I have to go with underperform. Dialup won't die overnight, but it slowly dieing. UNTD seems to have no broadband strategy with which to create growth.

All of their sites and products seem to be outaded.
Classmates.com: Will become worthless in the new Myspace/Facebook world.
Mypoints.com: Losing popularity and a site with no moat.
Photosite.com is a small site that isn't worth much.
Do you really want to invest in a dial-up company?
