ZEDO Welcomes Lawrence
Braitman and Esther Dyson to Its Board of Directors
San Francisco, Calif. - December 18, 2001 - ZEDO,
Inc., the leading Third Generation Ad Serving
company, today announced Lawrence Braitman, the
co-founder of the Flycast Network and Esther Dyson,
the Chairman of EDventure Holdings, have joined
the ZEDO Board of Directors.
"We are delighted that two leading industry figures
have joined the Board of ZEDO," said Roy de Souza,
CEO of ZEDO. "ZEDO's Third Generation Ad Serving
inspired by high end peer-to-peer architecture,
is cost effective, scalable, high speed and has
immense flexibility for customer specific features.
The support of such key individuals demonstrates
the power of ZEDO's technology to today's Internet."
"ZEDO's solution is tailor-made for the current
Internet advertising environment," said Mr. Braitman.
"By avoiding capital-intensive and maintenance-intensive
centralized ad serving technology, ZEDO's distributed
platform gives it an inherent cost advantage in
providing superior ad serving. Cost conscious
publishers and advertisers are finding that by
switching to ZEDO they can reduce their ad serving
costs by upwards of fifty percent." In 1996, Mr.
Braitman co-founded the highly successful Flycast

"I'm enthusiastic about ZEDO because it uses
'buzzword technology' -- decentralization and
Third Generation edgeServing™ -- to deliver
real-world benefits such as low cost, reliability
and scalability," said Esther Dyson. "Also, ZEDO
is the kind of company I love to support: a market-challenging
start-up that knows how to stay focused and efficient."

the chairman of EDventure Holdings, which publishes
