Advantages: free web space, email, shares, expert advise.
Disadvantages: time consuming
I have been a member of the mutual net for a good few months now. I decided to register while taking up the offer of free shares, the shares are awarded to each new member at the current rate of 1000 shares per person. The shares are already listed on aim and after a 3 month period you will have the oportunity to cash them in. I'm not sure about the current share price. As well as getting free shares they also are an internet service provider. You download the connections within 10 minutes. You also get 25mb of free web space and 5 email addresses. The mutual net is based mainly on experts in different fields,they have a huge network of experts. You can earn extra shares by becoming an expert, the expert catergories range from arts & literature, entertainment, health, sports etc. To become an expert you need to find something that you are an expert on. Then you fill in a profile and write discussions and help advice notes if you don't do this you will be removed. It takes a lot of effort and can be time consuming Becoming an expert gains you an extra 10,000 shares and you have your own forum plus a chat facility. You also get 250 extra shares for each article you write. A recent addition is referring friends, you can earn extra shares by referring. A very good site which has given me lots of good advice which have come from the forums themselves.

- 02/10/00 Just a quick point on the shares, there are absolutly worthless, your make far & away more money here at dooyoo.co.uk.
I have 1000 shares, currently worth a whopping £1.20! Not only this but it'll cost you £15 to sell them, so you'd need to earn yourself an extra 11,500 shares simply to 'break even'!! That is of course, providing the share price does not drop further.
This company is currently the laughing stock of the stock exchange & is not expected to last very long (since it is making a huge loss with now indication of where money is likely to come from).
The shares are purely a way of attracting users to a poor site. Also, many of the 'experts' are not really experts - have a look!
