GO.com's (NYSE:GO) vertical properties ABC.com, ABCNEWS.com, Disney Online and ESPN Internet Group all experienced double-digit growth in unique visitors from May 1999-2000, according to Media Metrix.

From May 1999 to May 2000:

"Our leading positions at ABC, Disney and ESPN, along with our other Web sites offering some of the most entertaining and engaging content on the Internet, have proven to be a formidable combination, attracting increasing numbers of consumers," said Steven M. Bornstein, chairman, GO.com. "Our strong vertical properties, which have experienced significant traffic growth, are propelling us forward on our strategic track to win in the entertainment, recreation and leisure categories on the Web."

-- ABC.com's 78% growth is due in large part to the popularity of

"Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." Since January 2000, ABC.com's

online version of "Millionaire" has been played more than 100

million times. In addition, from April to May 2000, ABC.com

grew 23%. During May 2000, ABC.com featured "PreView" an

exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at "The View," in which

users were able to watch streaming video of the co-hosts and

producers preparing for that day's program, a special tribute

to Michael J. Fox's departure from "Spin City," and produced a

special section for the Daytime Emmy Awards, which aired on

ABC.

-- ABCNEWS.com has experienced 11% growth during the past year

and an even more impressive 25% jump from April to May 2000.

During May 2000, ABCNEWS.com covered the Elian Gonzalez

custody battle, the anniversary of the Columbine H.S.

(Colorado) shootings and the Columbine Report. In addition,

during May ABCNEWS.com launched the monthly Chris Wallace

"Internet Expose" Web cast and celebrated its third

anniversary.

-- Disney Online grew 41% from May 1999-2000. Its flagship Web

site, Disney.com, continues to maintain its leadership

position as the No. 1 entertainment site for kids and

families. During May 2000, Disney Online and GO.com Travel

launched www.disneycruise.com, the official Disney Cruise Line 

Web site. Disney Cruise Line is the first Disney destination

site to offer online booking of air-inclusive vacation

packages. In addition to a variety of information and vacation

planning tools, disneycruise.com now provides users access to

real-time availability, pricing and instant customized

confirmations. Most recently, Disney.com introduced a

redesigned homepage, which has taken on the look and feel of a

virtual theme park.

-- ESPN.com grew 28%, and ESPN Internet Group continues to

attract more unique users than its two closest Internet sports

competitors combined. In terms of page views, ESPN holds a 67%

market share among the top four online sports outlets. During

the month of May, ESPN featured extensive coverage of the NBA 

and NHL playoffs, as well as the Indianapolis 500.
