CAPS Rating:
***

The Company is a leading provider of consumer Internet and media services.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

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.

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.

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.

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.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
