Advertiser's dream That authenticity also appeals to advertisers, who get raw feedback on everything from whether McDonald's or Burger King has better hamburgers to whether Britney Spears is still hot to what teens are doing on New Year's Eve.

Growing stronger Bolt ended 1999 on a strong note as it closed its second round of investment that year, attracting big bucks from a group that included Time Warner, Comcast Interactive Corporation, Entercom Communications Corp., America Online, and Ford Motor Company. In December 1999, the company allied itself with America Online to develop and manage a new co-branded platform of community services for AOL's teen channel. Bolt also created a co-branded site with AOL, allowing AOL members access to Bolt's content.
