1. New and Notable... Equity Office has launched its site with detailed descriptions of all its property holdings and a promise of research reports to come. The Arizona Department of Transportation provides a real time traffic map for Phoenix and two dozen live camera shots of important freeways and intersections. CB Commercial's office in Denver is online with its listings linked to the very good CommercialSearch listing service in Colorado mentioned below.

Revenue Properties Company, Ltd. offers extensive information on properties owned by it and its subsidiary Pan Pacific Development Corporation with a helpful search engine. Cambridge Shopping Centres Limited owns and manages regional shopping centers and office buildings across Canada. Ivanhoe is a Quebec-based owner of shopping centers and commercial properties in Canada and the U.S. In Washington, DJC Online, Seattle's Daily Journal of Commerce, offers a subscription service which provides access to extensive real estate information, including Foreclosures/Trustees Sales, Mortgages & Deeds and Leases & Tenants.

2. Upgrades... CommercialSearch, which covers the Denver area, is one of the best regional listing services available--very strong mapping features. For example, you can look at all vacant space within a certain area of a map and then click individual locations for detailed information. John B. Levy & Company, a real estate investment banking firm in Richmond, Virginia, now enables its lender clients to download rent rolls and operating statements after receiving a password.

3. E-mail Addresses... Our site reports have been reformatted to include a company's e-mail address, category of business and markets served. Please check your address. The address shown might be for your webmaster, and you may want to change it so that an initial inquiry goes to a business development person. If so, please e-mail me with your preferred address. I can update your record quickly.

4. PikeNet Users Group... As the content and volume of PikeNet has grown, a number of persons have contacted me with questions and suggestions about how to make PikeNet more valuable. If you would like to participate in a forum where comments can be posted, please contact me. I'm in the process of selecting software to enable this function within the next 30 days.

5. Web Success... Paul G. W. Fetscher of Great American Brokerage, Inc. in New York City used Dealmakers to find 14 properties in 48 hours for a developer with only 7 days left to designate prospective 1031 exchange properties.

6. Site of the Week... Want names of possible tenants for your property? Go to Cognetics Online, answer some marketing questions and you can receive a report derived from the Cognetics database of 3.2 million companies for $.95 a name.

7. PikeNet Changes... Shortcuts are now available for all Categories. Let's say that you want to see all Consultants or Office Developers' sites at PikeNet. Go toward the bottom of the home page and click on the hyperlink "Category Search."
