Don't ask me. It may still be awhile or it may be next Thursday. I think the biggest thing holding them back is the legal aspects of the way the business is set up. It's never been done before. "It's a used items/collectibles reseller that allows members to own small pieces of each inventory item and earn a return on these "investments" and refer other members for a percentage of their investments too." Imagine your lawyer trying to explain it all to the SEC. This could take time.
The CEO has mentioned this certification a few times. Although no one at AAN is blaming this aspect on the delays (which wouldn't be a smart thing to do) I personally believe this is what the biggest problem is.

The changes keep coming but I'm still happy to be invested here. It is so obvious to me that the admins of GNI have nothing but the best intentions and are savvy businessmen. If you are not invested here you don't have access to the private forum. While diversification is soooooo important with online investments like GNI, GF and AAN the best way not to get worried about changes in these programs is to not play. Simple.

Don't know what to say about this one folks. They are obviously doing something behind the scenes. My links (M2E) now appear to work for new members and I had to go through a password reset process to access my account. I'm thinking an update from the top is forthcoming. If you have been trying to open your free account and get your free shares it would appear that registration is now open! Of course it may be I'm jumping the gun as I've not received an official update. Sign up anyway as it may be the system of awarding free shares is going to change soon.

If you are a member you understand the difference between the new and old versions of GNI. If you are new here you will still like GNI even though it pays out less now than it used to. In a nut shell - all deposits are for a term of 14 months and pay 16% or 20% per month which includes a portion of the principal back each month. Still a killer rate of return, just not as high as before and with the new locking period of 14 months this is now a long term investment in the Internet investing world. Payouts are now also once a month instead of daily. Another reason to diversify - changes without notice to a program. It happens. In this case it has happened for the betterment of the company in my opinion. Gold Nugget Invest

A short note published inside the 'Updates' section on inside the M2E members area:

“Fellow MGs, GE’s, friends, I would like to share with you few thoughts about us as vital parts of M2E.
No details for now; just a few informal words among colleagues with the same passion.
It was long and difficult to get here but today we have a team we can count on.
- A group of motivated people that want to see M2E emerge and go sky high.
People that can share the frustrations of the regular members and the disappointments of the Directors and still see through to the bright future waiting for us.
We are in a position of privilege in comparison with our regular members since we see both sides of the story and often speak with Michael or read his news. We know about whatever has happened and what is now happening and we still trust the concept and strive for it.
All these delays just make us stronger because if we have this energy in the troubled present, think what we will be able to achieve when things will get better!
The Directors’ concept has become our project. Michael fights for a timetable and a stable structure and we are here with him.
Our effort will surely pay off; let's stay focused and confident.
I am sure Michael is going to surprise us with the results of his action... shortly ;) “

So there you have it not much has changed in almost two months. This is either going to get moving again soon or not. The website is there for current members but referral links and the new member sign-up are still not available. I certainly think M2E COULD be one of the next big things, but it won't be anytime soon it looks like. I hope I'm wrong on that.
If this link - M2E - works, then it's back up and open for new members.

Latest note from the head honcho at Genius Funds-

"At Genius we are committed to providing you with a top notch investment platform and the great service you deserve. That is why we are investing heavily in improving our products and services. I am very pleased to inform you of some of the improvements we implemented over the past week.

French Language Web Site
Due to our continuing success in French-speaking countries, we have opted to have our web site translated into the French language. Now all native French-speakers have a fully localized web site for their convenience.

Spanish Language Web Site
After numerous requests by our investors, we have decided to introduce a Spanish version of our web site. Work on localization is currently under way and is planned to be completed on the 15th of May, 2009. We also plan to introduce Spanish-speaking customer support representatives.

AlertPay
For convenience of those investors who would like to make their deposit using a credit card, AlertPay, a processor that we have been accepting for more than two months, has finally allowed our investors to make deposits into their accounts at Genius using Visa, MasterCard or American Express credit cards.

Reinvestment Power
Did you know that Genius offers automatic reinvestment (compounding) of your dividends? Just set reinvestment rate for your Genius account and each payout will be automatically used to purchase additional shares. By utilizing this powerful feature your total income will significantly increase over time in comparison to daily or weekly withdrawals. Our online calculator can be used to calculate the potential gain. Please note that you may change your reinvestment rate back at any time, including setting it back to 0%.

Denial of Service Attack Protection
While we have already been employing sophisticated methods of fighting these type of attacks, one large-scale attack had managed to restrict access to our web site for several hours during the weekend. To counter any future attacks of this scale we have upgraded fire wall equipment in our server room. We have also instructed our ISP to install new equipment which could mitigate attacks of this scale in the future.

I use the auto-compounding feature myself. I recommend it if you have finished one investment cycle here. Check it out here if you haven't yet.

The CEO Of M2E contacted all the Global Executives today with a short note about the latest troubles with the site. It was apologetic and insightful. I think everything will be back on track here after the holidays and the income streams will start to come more into focus for the general membership. They still have very big plans!

Some of us were really starting to wonder there for a minute... This company has had more technical bad luck this year than anything I've seen in the past. It would appear that the hardest part is over. The registration page isn't turned on yet as they are getting all the current 558,284 members situated and it should not be too long much longer before new members can register again. Remember M2E GIVES you shares in the company for being a member and I can very honestly say what this company has planned for even free members is going to blow Facebook back to 1984. The latest update from inside the members area--

Thank you!

me2everyone.com has been away for 29 days but we are back, on new servers and ready to face the world! We want to thank all our members for the incredible patience you have shown. Without you we are nothing and now is the time to start building a new future for everyone.

What’s next?

There’s some new code being tested now that improves the registration process – making it work every single time. The way a registration system should work. That solves 90% of our member problems. We’re also getting ready to bridge to our new members area, filled with video chat, forums and an improved message system. There’s a little more work to do there, some layout and colour changes but once in place we can finally say that the members have something to do here.

Before the end of 2009 the share registration system will also be completed (fingers crossed) giving you the chance to have a real registered share certificate in me2everyone PLC with your name held of the official record, giving you a chance to brag to your friends and tell those naysayers we are good to our word.

Beyond 2009

If you want to see 3D at its best, head across to www.zerofractal.com and meet the team we are in discussions with to create the 3D aspects of M2E. The next evolution of M2E is going to be a radical change where we introduce the village theme (and the name of the world). But when will this happen?

As you know in 2009 we have given you dates when things will be completed. Every time the information given to us has been wrong. So we don’t want to disappoint anyone again. However we will continue to give you progress reports and let you know when major milestones are completed.

Check back here throughout December to find out the latest on M2E and catch a little more inside inf. I get some pretty cool private updates from the head honchos here as I'm on the Global Executive list. The next one I get I'm going to give a little more insight without quoting directly.

Some excerpts from the latest MK Hosting Newsletter:

"Yet Another, New Addition to the Marketer's Package. $125 Free PPC Credits.

Free premium pay per click advertising anyone? So now, on top of everything that's already included in the Marketer's Package, you now also receive $125 free in total PPC credits. $25 for Yahoo, $50 for the Miva Ad Network, and $50 for Ask.com

To get started using these, simply log into your account and in the drop down menu choose "$125 PPC Credits".

Media Kits, Business Cards & Flyers.

It's time to tap into the offline world. We've just added a customizable business card and Flyer template which you can add your own contact information to and get it printed at your home, or your local print shop. They're available in .psd and .jpg formats so whether or not you have photoshop, you can still easily add in your own information with almost any kind of graphic editor or even Microsoft Paint.

What are Media Kits? We'll we have had quite a few people request a copy of the MK logo since whenever they copied the logo from the website, they placed it into they're website, and they're website was black or green, a big white box would be surrounding the logo which looked pretty cheesy. To help everyone out, we've added MK logo files for you which you can download from your distributor back office. If you embed these images into a green, black, blue, no matter what color the background to your website is, these logo's will not have a big white box around them. They will blend in. (The white box that usually surrounds the logo is transparent)

How to find them: Log into your account and in the drop down menu click "Offline Advertising".

I can not tell you how happy I am with this company so far. This is exactly what I've been looking for all year. A web hosting company with a legitimate MLM affiliate program, great support and professionalism and everything noobies need to be successful in their online endeavors! I am going to promote the heck out of this opportunity at the first of the year and if want some good spillover into your own downline here join this honest internet income stream under hi2s.biz right now -- hi2s.biz/MK Hosting

A few people have noticed right away that I have removed TeamWork Revolution (TWR and TWRPS) from hi2s.biz. This was a sad day indeed. I really feel for James Al'Oboudi and company, but the fact is I can't currently recommend either program in their current forms. I never really promoted either anywhere else but this website as I was waiting for them to "get it together." I'm still waiting. I still have accounts in both, but am not using either nor promoting either for now.
MK Hosting is the perfect solution for any internet marketer's online endeavors. $17.99 a month is a no brainer for what it includes.
- A free domain. You must pick your domain name when signing up - take your time and think about this! Brand yourself or your future website.
- A kick-a** auto-responder service. I just set one up for the newsletter for hi2s.biz and it is, in my opinion, as good as or even better than AWeber. I had a small glitch I couldn't resolve my self and used the live chat feature for support and one of the owners of the company sorted it out in about two minutes. Which brings us to:
- Support - absolutely amazing. I've been using 1&1 for all my hosting needs for years (I currently host over 30 sites both for myself and private clients) and can tell you I've never gotten an answer from support there in less than 4 or 5 hours and usually the next day.
- I look forward to moving all my and my clients web sites over to MK Hosting in the very near future. I will still register domains at 1&1, but for hosting and marketing MKH is they way to go!
