Red Herring magazine, the company’s flagship product, is an award-winning international technology business and investment monthly, which provides a forward-thinking, analytical look at technology companies and industries, and evaluates technology as a strategic asset. Ranked as one of the top ten technology/business journalists by Marketing Computers magazine, Perkins is an active editorial contributor across all of Red Herring’s media platforms. He authors Red Herring magazine’s lead editorial, The Angler, each month and a regular weekly column for redherring.com called the Red Eye. In addition, he appears weekly on CNN Financial Network’s Digital Jam and regularly on MSNBC’s Hardball with Chris Matthews, and is a regular on-air commentator for CNN, CNBC, BBC and Bloomberg television. Perkins also writes a monthly column for The Wall Street Journal and has been a member of the World Economic Forum’s Media Leaders group since 1996. In 1999, Perkins co-authored the international best-selling book, The Internet Bubble: Inside the Overvalued World of High-Tech Stocks, where he predicted that the bubble created by the Internet craze would burst and only a few companies would be profitable over the long run. A second revision of this book, The Internet Bubble: The Inside Story on Why it Burst - And What You Can Do to Profit Now, will be released in March, 2001. At the lecture podium, Perkins discusses the state of the Internet and the future of high- tech investing. With unmatched depth of analysis and insider perspective, he delivers an understanding of how technology and the Internet are changing the business landscape. Perkins also examines technology companies through the eyes of Wall Street, highlighting trends and offering insight into the changes the current investment climate demands. Perkins examines many of the Internet’s major players and argues that despite the fallout ignoring technology stocks could be as dangerous to your portfolio as buying too much. </snip> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Gert Lombard Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2001 4:20 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; 'Perl-Win32-Web Subject: RE: link breaks and html Hi, You could try: $biography =~ s/\n/<br>/g; (i.e. global replace) -Gert -----Original Message----- From: Roee Rubin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2001 4:10 PM To: 'Perl-Win32-Web Subject: link breaks and html Hello, I have the following text in the DB (mysql) ... <snip> This three-way clash of the consoles is certain to enthrall video game fans since the competition will likely heighten the quality of all the products and keep each company on its toes.
