Did CNet just buy TechRepublic?

Since I've been around TR, it has been a part of the cNet/ZDNet empire. Glad to enlighten you Jawja boys.

CNET has always owned ZDNet and TR from what I know. I had a bit of a go with CNet some time ago about copyrights on TR.

I think I remember a time when TR was more closely associated with Gartner than ZDNET, then was bought by ZDNet, then by CNET by proxy when they bought Ziff Davis.

Of course, I may be entirely wrong as I don't follow too closely the flow of what conglomerate devours which at any given point.

We have been a part of CNET since early in 2001.

The issue with the peer contact stuff will hopefully be resolved so that it is clearer who is sending you the e-mail.
