Rocketinfo startet Rocket Desktop Nachrichtensuchtool
12.04.2005 (08:25)
RANCHO MIRAGE, Kalifornien — 12. April 2005-- Rocketinfo Inc. (WKN A0B75D), ein führender internationaler Suchmaschinenanbieter und Infomediär für Geschäftsnachrichten in Echtzeit, gibt heute die Fertigstellung der weltweit ersten Desktop-Nachrichtensuchanwendung bekannt, dem Rocket Desktop 1.1.
Der kostenlose Rocket Desktop (abrufbar als BETA Download unter www.rocketnews.com) ist eine benutzerfreundliche Anwendung, die einen bequemen Weg zur Onlinesuche von aktuellsten Nachrichten aus den tausenden Quellen der Rocketinfo Nachrichtendatenbank bietet.
Laut Rocketinfo CTO und Gründer Rick VanWell „baut der Rocket Desktop die führende Stellung von Rocketinfo in der Entwicklung von Technologien aus, die einen unvergleichlichen Zugang zu aktuellen Nachrichten geben.“ VanWell fügte hinzu, dass „der Konsum von Onlinenachrichten weiter wächst und ein riesiger Bedarf für den sofortigen Zugriff auf zeitgenaue relevante Nachrichten besteht, die der Rocket Desktop liefert. Wir werden auch aggressiv Möglichkeiten zu Kooperationen entwickeln, die auf Privatlabelversionen dieser Anwendung basieren.“
Der Rocket Desktop gibt Nutzern die Fähigkeit, Suchanfragen für Nachrichten von heute, der letzten Woche oder des letzten Monates minutengenau zu generieren und abzuspeichern. Die Suchergebnisse beinhalten den Artikeltitel und einen kurzen Textauszug.

Die Ergebnisse werden durch Nutzung der Rocketinfo Ranking-Technologie sortiert, um die Genauigkeit und Relevanz für Endnutzer zu sichern. Wenn der Rocket Desktop nicht genutzt wird, erscheint er als Icon in der Systemablage des Users und kann mit einem einzigen Klick gestartet werden.

Die Datenbank umfasst über 16.000 aktuelle Nachrichtenquellen einschließlich landesweiter und städtischer Tageszeitungen, spezieller Publikationen, Nachrichtenticker, Handelsjournale und industriespezifische Webseiten. Diese Quellen werden permanent überwacht, um zu versichern, das Rocket Desktop Nutzer Nachrichten zu jedem Thema auf die Minute genau anschauen können. Die Suchergebnisse beinhalten gezielte, dem Zusammenhang entsprechende Anzeigen von Kanoodle.

Rocketinfo Jahresabschluss 2004 – Kommentar des Vorstandsvorsitzenden
29.04.2005 (09:15)
RANCHO MIRAGE, Kalifornien, April 2005 -- An die Aktionäre, Nutzer, Kunden und Mitarbeiter von Rocketinfo: Dies ist mein erster Brief als Vorstands- und Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender, und es ist ein persönliches Privileg für mich, diese spannende und dynamische Organisation zu leiten.
Mit Verfassung dieser Zeilen hat Rocketinfo seinen Aufstieg zu einem börsennotierten Unternehmen erfolgreich abgeschlossen. Während Rocketinfo und seine Technologien in den vergangenen 6 Jahren sorgfältig entwickelt und gestestet worden sind, ist es der Aufstieg des Unternehmens an die Börse, der uns die Möglichkeit gegeben hat, unsere spannende Nachrichtenproduktreihe einer weltweiten Audienz zu präsentieren. Diese Entwicklung markiert einen wichtigen Meilenstein für uns, der uns die Möglichkeit gibt, zum Ausdruck zu bringen, was Rocketinfo in den vergangenen 6 Jahren erreicht hat.
Nachdem das Internet Mitte der 90er Jahre kommerzialisiert wurde, ist es schneller als jedes andere neue Medium angenommen worden und Rocketinfos Nachrichtenportal Rocketnews.com zählt mittlerweile zu den vertrauenswürdigsten Nachrichtenseiten weltweit. Rocketinfos Gründer Rick VanWell und Darren DeJean wollten Rocketinfo ursprünglich zur Topquelle für aktuelle Geschäftsnachrichten im Internet machen. Rocketinfos Produkte und Dienstleistungen werden sich rasant ausdehnen, sobald unsere aggressiven Marketingaktivitäten begonnen haben, aber Rock und Darrens ursprüngliches Ziel bleibt auch heute das Herz unserer Mission. Als Unternehmen haben wir uns verpflichtet, aktuelle Geschäftsnachrichten schneller, besser und günstiger zu liefern.
Unser Abschluss für das Geschäftsjahr 2004 zeigt das neue Unternehmen in einem noch unterentwickelten Stadium. Das Unternehmen weist einen sehr begrenzten Umsatz für 2004 aus, was darauf zurückzuführen ist, dass die Akquisition von Rocketinfo im letzten Quartal 2004 stattfand. Die Ergebnisse davor gehen auf die generierten Umsätze des privaten Unternehmens zurück, als noch wenig oder gar keine Marketinggelder zur Verfügung standen. Wichtig ist jedoch anzumerken, dass eine kleine aber feine Liste von Stammkunden aufgebaut wurde, als Rocketinfo noch relativ unbekannt war (z.B. Sun Microsystems, NASCAR, Sun Life und das kanadische Ministerium für Außenhandel). Diese Stammkunden unterstützen die Produkte von Rocketinfo. Es soll weiter angemerkt werden, dass das neue Unternehmen im Jahr 2004 über 1,5 Mio. Dollar aufgewendet hat, um die Produkte von Rocketinfo zu integrieren, expandieren und zu vermarkten.
Wir haben als Ergebnis dieser Aktivitäten in 2004 keine große Verbesserung im Bruttoumsatz des vorliegenden Jahresabschlusses erwartet, ebenso wie für das erste Quartal 2005. Was wir erwartet haben und zurzeit sehen, ist ein riesiger Anstieg des Interesses an Rocketinfos Produkten. Das gestiegene Interesse hat zur Unterzeichung mehrerer Neuverträge geführt, die im Großvertrag mit der CNW Gruppe (Canada Newswire) in Dezember 2004 und der Einführung eines großen Vertriebsprogramms von CNW unter Einbeziehung der Produkte von Rocketinfo am Ende des ersten Quartals 2005 ihren Höhepunkt gefunden haben. Die Ergebnisse aus den bestehenden Verträgen des Unternehmens werden einen signifikanten Umsatzanstieg im zweiten Quartal und in der Zeit danach liefern.
Als wir das Marketingprogramm 2004 eingeführten, haben wir auch Ziele im Bezug auf neue Verträge und Anstieg des Bruttoumsatzes für 2005 formuliert. Viele dieser Ziele wurden bereits erreicht oder überschritten. Unser Vertriebs- und Marketingteam expandiert weiter und wir erreichen eine immer breitere Gruppe von interessierten potenziellen Kunden. Wir erwarten, dass die Zahl unserer Neukunden in 2005 weiter steigt. Neue und kürzlich unterzeichnete Verträge, die sich aus unserer bestehenden Kundenbasis aufbauen, werden alle zu einem wesentlich steigenden Umsatz für 2005 und danach beitragen.
2004 war das Jahr, in dem Werbetreibende sich nach der fortlaufende Veränderung in Mustern und Gewohnheiten des Medienkonsums richteten, indem sie ihre Werbebudgets mehr und mehr im Internet investiert haben. Mit einer engagierten Audienz, die Rocketnews.com und die kürzlich fertig gestellte herunterladbare Anwendung Rocket Desktop nutzen, glauben wir, dass Rocketinfo gut positioniert ist, um aus dieser Veränderung Vorteile zu erzielen. Wir haben kürzlich Werbung in das Geschäftsmodell von Rocketinfo eingeführt und antizipieren, dass Werbeumsätze aufgrund des unglaublichen Wachstums in der Nachfrage nach Qualitätsanzeigen einen wichtigen Beitrag zum Umsatz des Unternehmens im Geschäftsjahr 2005 leisten werden. Ein kürzlich unterzeichneter Vertrag mit dem zielgruppenorientierten Internet-Werbevermarkter Kanoodle ist ein wichtiger Schritt für das Erreichen unserer Umsatzziele. Vorläufige Ergebnisse zeigen eine sehr gute Nutzerreaktion auf unsere Anzeigen. Unser Ziel für 2005 ist die Entwicklung eines Werbegeschäfts, das die qualitativ beste Audienz, ein zielgerichtetes und effektives Angebot von Werbemöglichkeiten und ein hocheffizientes Ergebnis für Werbetreibende liefert.
Innovation und Produktqualität
2004 lag unser Gesellschaftsfokus auf unserer Technologie, Steigerung der Innovationsrate und Produktentwicklung innerhalb des Unternehmens. Die Liste der technologischen Leistungen und Innovationen in 2004 ist lang. Nachfolgend wird jedoch nur ein kleiner Teil der bemerkenswerten Entwicklungen angesprochen:
Rocket Suchtechnologie
Im letzten Jahr haben wir viele Verbesserungen an unserem Kernsuchprodukt durchgeführt, einschließlich deutlicher Verbesserung unserer Technologie zur Contentzusammenstellung und –indexierung, um mehr Nachrichten noch schneller als andere Dienstleistungen von Wettbewerbern zu liefern. Wir haben daneben Personalisierungssoftware hinzugefügt, die die Qualität und Relevanz von Ergebnissen bei fortlaufender Verwendung verbessert und wirkungsvoll „lernt“, nach was der Endnutzer sucht. Wir glauben, dass diese Verbesserungen versichern, dass Rocketinfos Lösungen die genauesten und relevantesten Ergebnisse ohne menschliche Intervention oder Redakteure liefern.
RocketNews.com Internet Nachrichtenportal
Während des letzten Jahres wurden durch Nutzung von Rocketnews.com, unserem beliebten computergenerierten aktuellem Nachrichtensuchportal, über 5 Millionen Hits und Suchanfragen pro Monat erzielt. Unser kostenloses RocketNews Portal speichert jetzt die Suchhistorie und erlaubt somit eine komplette Personalisierung. Nutzer können aktuelle Nachrichten von über 100.000 Contentquellen für geschäftliche Nachrichten abfragen (inklusive mehr als 16.000 globalen Informationsquellen und über 80.000 RSS/ Atom News Feeds und Weblog-Quellen). Wir waren ausgesprochen erfreut als Rocketnews.com nach positiven Kommentaren von vielen Branchenanalysten und Nutzern 2004 für einen Webby Award als bestes Nachrichtenportal im Internet gemeinsam mit der BBC nominiert worden ist.
Rocket RSS Produkte
Als wir damit begonnen haben, Produkte und Dienstleistungen für RSS zu entwickeln, wussten nur sehr wenige Menschen, dass RSS ein einflussreiches persönliches Nachrichten- und Informationstool werden würde. Die beliebte RocketNews Nachrichtensuchmaschine kann jetzt genutzt werden, um dynamische Keyword-basierte RSS Feeds zum Gebrauch in jedem RSS Reader zu erzeugen, einschließlich Rocketinfos eigenem Rocket RSS Reader. Seit Vorstellung im letzten Jahr nutzen jetzt über 37.000 registrierte User unsere RSS Produkte, um personalisierte suchbasierte Nachrichten-Feeds zu kreieren. Keine andere Suchmaschinendienstleistung kann es mit Rocket RSS bei Echtzeit-Zugriffen auf einen riesigen und vielfältigen Fundus von aktuellen Nachrichten und Geschäftsinformation aufnehmen.
Rocket Contentdatenbank
2004 ist die Rocket Contentdatenbank um über 30% gewachsen. Rocketinfo hat jetzt Zugriff auf mehr aktuellen Nachrichtencontent zu geringeren Kosten als jeder andere Infomediär auf der Welt. Rocketinfos Technologie kann unseren Content schneller und kostengünstiger finden, indexieren und verbreiten als jeder andere Infomediär. Wir bieten jetzt Zugang zu über 100.000 aktuellen Nachrichtenquellen und Geschäftsinformationen an. Unsere Datenbank enthält alle weltweit führenden Nachrichtenprovider einschließlich Reuters, AP, Bloomberg, die New York Times, BBC und Content von Spezialanbietern wie Handelsjournalen, Branchenportalen, staatlichen Archiven, Spezialmagazinen und den weltweit beliebtesten dynamischen Weblogs.
Rocket eingebettete Marketingstrategie
2004 hat sich das Unternehmen auf eine neue Marketingstrategie eingelassen, die großen Vertreibern von Anwendersoftware und Wiederverkäufern erlaubt, unseren Content oder unsere Suchfunktionalität in ihre Produkte einzuschließen oder “einzubetten. Zur Unterstützung dieser Strategie ist Rocketinfo die erste Suchmaschine, die Such-API für Nachrichten und Geschäftsinformationen zum allgemeinen Gebrauch fertig gestellt hat. Unser Such-API erlaubt Unternehmen, wirkungsvolle Produkte zu schaffen, die von unserer Fundgrube an aktuellen Nachrichtencontent profitieren. Es ist jetzt klar, dass die nächste Generation von Geschäftsanwendungen und -dienstleistungen eingebettete Suche und dynamischen Zugriff auf Nachrichten und Geschäftsinformationen in Echtzeit benötigen und der RocketNews Such-API ist die erste Technologie, die diesen Bedarf deckt. Die Bestätigung dieser Strategie war der Abschluss des ersten großen „eingebetteten“ Vertrags mit der CNW Gruppe im letzten Jahr.
Rocket Desktop Suchtools
Wir haben kürzlich das kostenlose Rocket Desktop Suchtool vorgestellt (zum Download erhältlich unter www.rocketnews.com). Dieses Produkt repräsentiert den zweiten von drei Teilen in unserer neuen Desktop Such Suite und ist eine schlanke Anwendung, die einen bequemen Weg zur Online-Suche nach den aktuellsten Nachrichten aus den tausenden Quellen der Rocketinfo Nachrichtendatenbank bietet. Der neue Rocket Desktop gibt Nutzern die Fähigkeit, Suchanfragen für minutengenaue Nachrichten von heute, der letzten Woche oder des letzten Monats zu kreieren und abzuspeichern. Wir planen weiter, den RocketNews Alert vorzustellen und zu vermarkten. RocketNews Alert ist eine revolutionäre Desktopanwendung, die Nachrichtenalerts in Echtzeit mit Zugang zu unserem Premium Content liefert und die mit unserem beliebten Desktop Research Tool gemeinsam vermarktet werden wird.
Ausblick
Während wir erfreut sind über unseren Fortschritt bis heute, beabsichtige ich, den Unternehmensfokus auf einige kommende Schlüsselgelegenheiten fokussiert zu halten.
Erstens wird Rocketinfo sich auf den Aufbau einer breiteren Basis von Interessenten für seine Produkte konzentrieren mit dem Ziel, einen deutlichen Nutzeranstieg für unsere Kernprodukte zu erzielen. Die heutige Welt bewegt sich von Massenmedien hin zu „meinen Medien“, eine Welt, in der der User der Programmierer ist. Rocketinfo strebt danach, ein wesentlicher Teil des täglichen Lebens seiner Kunden zu sein. Um dies zu erreichen, wissen wir, dass wir das liefern müssen, was die User wollen – wann, wie und wo sie wollen. Die Zukunft von Rocketinfo ist die leistungsstarke Integration unserer drei Säulen: Suche, Content und Personalisierung. Durch Bereitstellung dieser Tools am Markt werden wir für unsere Kunden und für Rocketinfo einen bedeutenden Wertzuwachs liefern können.
Zweitens wird Rocket versuchen, die Reichweite seiner Produkte durch ein größeres Angebot von Liefermechanismen auszudehnen. Die fortlaufende Konvergenz von Breitband und drahtlosen Technologien ist eine große Gelegenheit für Rocketinfo. Wir glauben, dass User in einer verbundenen Welt erwarten, dass ihre Internetnutzung nahtlos über alle Geräte integriert, und ihr Nachrichtencontent zugänglich, personalisiert und aktuell ist. Rocketinfo ist in einer exzellenten Position, um diese Erfahrung für seine User über alle Plattformen und Geräte zu bereichern. Im Jahr 2005 wird Rocketinfo noch aggressiver vorgehen, um Nutzern bei ihrer Erfahrung mit Rocketnews zu helfen.
Drittens ist es unser Ziel, unsere Werbe- und Marketingdienstleistungen durch Angebot einer zielgerichteten und dem Zusammenhang entsprechenden Reihe von Marketinglösungen weiter auszudehnen. Wir haben kürzlich mit unseren Marketingaktivitäten begonnen und versprechen uns im Jahr 2005 große Erfolge davon. Große Vermarkter verschieben jetzt größere Prozente ihrer Werbebudgets in das Internet, weil sie bemerken, dass sie ihr Publikum in seiner bevorzugten Umgebung erreichen müssen. Rocketinfo investiert für seine Zukunft in Tools, Formate, Messverfahren und Daten, um Unternehmen bei der Definition der nächsten Phase von Onlinewerbung zu unterstützen.
Schlusswort
Zusammenfassend hat Rocketinfo einen sehr aufregenden Börsenauftakt gehabt, der verspricht, sich über das Jahr 2005 hinaus fortzusetzen. Mein aufrichtiger Dank gilt unseren Aktionären, Nutzern, Partner, Kunden und Mitarbeitern für ihre fortlaufende Unterstützung. Wenn ich auf das Jahr zurückblicke, fühle ich mich sehr glücklich. Ich arbeite mit einem passenden und extrem talentierten Managementteam und einer enthusiastischen Mitarbeiterbasis zusammen, die weiterhin hilft, neu zu definieren wie aktuelle Nachrichten geliefert werden.
Wir haben klare Rahmenbedingungen für unser Geschäft geschaffen. Ich bin begeistert darüber, wie wir unsere Vision umgesetzt haben und zuversichtlich für unsere Zukunft.

Während des letzten Jahres wurden durch Nutzung von Rocketnews.com, unserem beliebten computergenerierten aktuellem Nachrichtensuchportal, über 5 Millionen Hits und Suchanfragen pro Monat erzielt. Unser kostenloses RocketNews Portal speichert jetzt die Suchhistorie und erlaubt somit eine komplette Personalisierung. Nutzer können aktuelle Nachrichten von über 100.000 Contentquellen für geschäftliche Nachrichten abfragen (inklusive mehr als 16.000 globalen Informationsquellen und über 80.000 RSS/ Atom News Feeds und Weblog-Quellen). Wir waren ausgesprochen erfreut als Rocketnews.com nach positiven Kommentaren von vielen Branchenanalysten und Nutzern 2004 für einen Webby Award als bestes Nachrichtenportal im Internet gemeinsam mit der BBC nominiert worden ist.
Rocket RSS Produkte
Als wir damit begonnen haben, Produkte und Dienstleistungen für RSS zu entwickeln, wussten nur sehr wenige Menschen, dass RSS ein einflussreiches persönliches Nachrichten- und Informationstool werden würde. Die beliebte RocketNews Nachrichtensuchmaschine kann jetzt genutzt werden, um dynamische Keyword-basierte RSS Feeds zum Gebrauch in jedem RSS Reader zu erzeugen, einschließlich Rocketinfos eigenem Rocket RSS Reader. Seit Vorstellung im letzten Jahr nutzen jetzt über 37.000 registrierte User unsere RSS Produkte, um personalisierte suchbasierte Nachrichten-Feeds zu kreieren. Keine andere Suchmaschinendienstleistung kann es mit Rocket RSS bei Echtzeit-Zugriffen auf einen riesigen und vielfältigen Fundus von aktuellen Nachrichten und Geschäftsinformation aufnehmen.
Rocket Contentdatenbank
2004 ist die Rocket Contentdatenbank um über 30% gewachsen. Rocketinfo hat jetzt Zugriff auf mehr aktuellen Nachrichtencontent zu geringeren Kosten als jeder andere Infomediär auf der Welt. Rocketinfos Technologie kann unseren Content schneller und kostengünstiger finden, indexieren und verbreiten als jeder andere Infomediär. Wir bieten jetzt Zugang zu über 100.000 aktuellen Nachrichtenquellen und Geschäftsinformationen an. Unsere Datenbank enthält alle weltweit führenden Nachrichtenprovider einschließlich Reuters, AP, Bloomberg, die New York Times, BBC und Content von Spezialanbietern wie Handelsjournalen, Branchenportalen, staatlichen Archiven, Spezialmagazinen und den weltweit beliebtesten dynamischen Weblogs.
Rocket eingebettete Marketingstrategie
2004 hat sich das Unternehmen auf eine neue Marketingstrategie eingelassen, die großen Vertreibern von Anwendersoftware und Wiederverkäufern erlaubt, unseren Content oder unsere Suchfunktionalität in ihre Produkte einzuschließen oder “einzubetten. Zur Unterstützung dieser Strategie ist Rocketinfo die erste Suchmaschine, die Such-API für Nachrichten und Geschäftsinformationen zum allgemeinen Gebrauch fertig gestellt hat. Unser Such-API erlaubt Unternehmen, wirkungsvolle Produkte zu schaffen, die von unserer Fundgrube an aktuellen Nachrichtencontent profitieren. Es ist jetzt klar, dass die nächste Generation von Geschäftsanwendungen und -dienstleistungen eingebettete Suche und dynamischen Zugriff auf Nachrichten und Geschäftsinformationen in Echtzeit benötigen und der RocketNews Such-API ist die erste Technologie, die diesen Bedarf deckt. Die Bestätigung dieser Strategie war der Abschluss des ersten großen „eingebetteten“ Vertrags mit der CNW Gruppe im letzten Jahr.
Rocket Desktop Suchtools
Wir haben kürzlich das kostenlose Rocket Desktop Suchtool vorgestellt (zum Download erhältlich unter www.rocketnews.com). Dieses Produkt repräsentiert den zweiten von drei Teilen in unserer neuen Desktop Such Suite und ist eine schlanke Anwendung, die einen bequemen Weg zur Online-Suche nach den aktuellsten Nachrichten aus den tausenden Quellen der Rocketinfo Nachrichtendatenbank bietet. Der neue Rocket Desktop gibt Nutzern die Fähigkeit, Suchanfragen für minutengenaue Nachrichten von heute, der letzten Woche oder des letzten Monats zu kreieren und abzuspeichern. Wir planen weiter, den RocketNews Alert vorzustellen und zu vermarkten. RocketNews Alert ist eine revolutionäre Desktopanwendung, die Nachrichtenalerts in Echtzeit mit Zugang zu unserem Premium Content liefert und die mit unserem beliebten Desktop Research Tool gemeinsam vermarktet werden wird.
Ausblick
Während wir erfreut sind über unseren Fortschritt bis heute, beabsichtige ich, den Unternehmensfokus auf einige kommende Schlüsselgelegenheiten fokussiert zu halten.
Erstens wird Rocketinfo sich auf den Aufbau einer breiteren Basis von Interessenten für seine Produkte konzentrieren mit dem Ziel, einen deutlichen Nutzeranstieg für unsere Kernprodukte zu erzielen. Die heutige Welt bewegt sich von Massenmedien hin zu „meinen Medien“, eine Welt, in der der User der Programmierer ist. Rocketinfo strebt danach, ein wesentlicher Teil des täglichen Lebens seiner Kunden zu sein. Um dies zu erreichen, wissen wir, dass wir das liefern müssen, was die User wollen – wann, wie und wo sie wollen. Die Zukunft von Rocketinfo ist die leistungsstarke Integration unserer drei Säulen: Suche, Content und Personalisierung. Durch Bereitstellung dieser Tools am Markt werden wir für unsere Kunden und für Rocketinfo einen bedeutenden Wertzuwachs liefern können.
Zweitens wird Rocket versuchen, die Reichweite seiner Produkte durch ein größeres Angebot von Liefermechanismen auszudehnen. Die fortlaufende Konvergenz von Breitband und drahtlosen Technologien ist eine große Gelegenheit für Rocketinfo. Wir glauben, dass User in einer verbundenen Welt erwarten, dass ihre Internetnutzung nahtlos über alle Geräte integriert, und ihr Nachrichtencontent zugänglich, personalisiert und aktuell ist. Rocketinfo ist in einer exzellenten Position, um diese Erfahrung für seine User über alle Plattformen und Geräte zu bereichern. Im Jahr 2005 wird Rocketinfo noch aggressiver vorgehen, um Nutzern bei ihrer Erfahrung mit Rocketnews zu helfen.
Drittens ist es unser Ziel, unsere Werbe- und Marketingdienstleistungen durch Angebot einer zielgerichteten und dem Zusammenhang entsprechenden Reihe von Marketinglösungen weiter auszudehnen. Wir haben kürzlich mit unseren Marketingaktivitäten begonnen und versprechen uns im Jahr 2005 große Erfolge davon. Große Vermarkter verschieben jetzt größere Prozente ihrer Werbebudgets in das Internet, weil sie bemerken, dass sie ihr Publikum in seiner bevorzugten Umgebung erreichen müssen. Rocketinfo investiert für seine Zukunft in Tools, Formate, Messverfahren und Daten, um Unternehmen bei der Definition der nächsten Phase von Onlinewerbung zu unterstützen.
Schlusswort
Zusammenfassend hat Rocketinfo einen sehr aufregenden Börsenauftakt gehabt, der verspricht, sich über das Jahr 2005 hinaus fortzusetzen. Mein aufrichtiger Dank gilt unseren Aktionären, Nutzern, Partner, Kunden und Mitarbeitern für ihre fortlaufende Unterstützung. Wenn ich auf das Jahr zurückblicke, fühle ich mich sehr glücklich. Ich arbeite mit einem passenden und extrem talentierten Managementteam und einer enthusiastischen Mitarbeiterbasis zusammen, die weiterhin hilft, neu zu definieren wie aktuelle Nachrichten geliefert werden.
Wir haben klare Rahmenbedingungen für unser Geschäft geschaffen. Ich bin begeistert darüber, wie wir unsere Vision umgesetzt haben und zuversichtlich für unsere Zukunft.

Google trying to patent news ranking by quality
May 05, 2005 16:43:59 (ET)
By Lisa Baertlein
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Web search leader Google Inc. has applied for U.S. and international patents on technology to rank stories on its news site based on the quality of the news source, according to patent applications obtained by Reuters on Thursday.
Google`s ((GOOG.O)) search engine now automatically scours some 4,500 news sources and highlights stories, typically by popularity and timeliness, although Google does not disclose full details of its ranking system.
Google News site gathers article from disparate news outlets such as ABC News, Voice of America, the Christian Science Monitor, the World Peace Herald, Xinhua, Reuters, Bloomberg and the Los Angeles Times.
Industry watchers said that over time Google News has come to depend on more established news providers for its content.
A Google spokesman confirmed that the company has applied for the patents but declined further comment regarding whether the company will use or is already using the technology.
As Web logs and other commentary sites proliferate, postings from some have received prominent play within search result pages and on online news-gathering sites. Sometimes, such postings have carried biased or inaccurate claims.
The technology Google is attempting to patent may help the company choose the most reliable information sources, although some Web commentators have said it will create a bias toward mainstream news sources.
Google filed its U.S. patent application in September 2003 and it is in line for review by patent examiners. It covers "systems and methods for improving the ranking of news articles" based on the "quality" of the news source.
According to that patent application, factors determining such rankings would include: the amount of important coverage produced by an identified news source; a human opinion of that source; network traffic to the source; circulation statistics; staff size; breadth of coverage; and the number of bureaus the news source operates.
Google`s related international patent application published in late March under the Patent Cooperation Treaty and was first reported in New Scientist magazine this week.
"It sounded to me like it would be useful not just for news but for search results as well," said Topix.net Chief Executive Rich Skrenta, who had not reviewed the patent applications.
The risk in depending only on large, established news providers is that a news site "might be leaving a lot of really good material on the floor," Skrenta added.
Topix.net is an online news service that gathers stories from thousands of sources around the Web as well as from such places as college newspapers. In March, newspaper publishers Gannett Co. (GCI,Trade), Knight Ridder Inc. (KRI,Trade) and the Tribune Co. (TRB,Trade) each bought 25 percent stakes in Topix, while company founders retained the last one-quarter stake.
Online news has become an increasingly competitive market as newspaper circulation declines and mainstream news organizations look for ways to hold on to readers, many of whom favor sites that gather stories from many sources over those run by a single news outlet.
Yahoo Inc. (YHOO,Trade) recently gave a visual make-over and technological boost to its online news site, which is the most-visited in the United States. Yahoo gathers news from disparate sources via direct feeds and a Web crawler. But unlike Google News, Yahoo News employs human editors and carries advertising.

ROCKETINFO, INC.
(FORMERLY ZEPPELIN ENERGY INC.)
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
March 31, 2005
(1) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements for the quarter ended March 31,
2005 have been prepared by Rocketinfo, Inc. (formerly Zeppelin Energy
Inc.) (the "Company"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying
un-audited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting
only of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair
presentation of the Company`s financial position and results of
operations for the period presented. The results of operations for the
quarter ended March 31, 2005 is not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year. All references to dollar
amounts are in US$ unless otherwise identified.
The Company`s financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. At March 31, 2005, the
Company had a stockholders` equity of $4,169,356.
In view of these conditions, the Company`s ability to continue as a
going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional
financing or capital sources, to meet its financing requirements, and
ultimately to achieve profitable operations. Management believes that
its current and future plans provide an opportunity to continue as a
going concern. The accompanying interim financial statements do not
include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that may be necessary in the event the Company cannot
continue as a going concern.
(2) Basic Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each
period.

(3) Stock Option Plan
The Company has a nonqualified stock option plan (the "Plan") pursuant
to which up to 1,000,000 shares of its common stock can be set aside to
provide certain executives, directors, and other employees or
consultants the option to purchase shares of the Company`s common
stock. The stock options vest at various increments as specified in the
respective option agreements. As provided by the Plan, the Board of
Directors may waive the vesting provision in whole or in part at any
time based on such factors as the Board of Directors determines at its
sole discretion. The stock options expire 2, 5, and 10 years from the
date of grant or upon termination of employment, retirement, or death.
As of December 31, 2004, 1,025,000 stock options were outstanding with
a weighted-average exercise price of $2.07 and weighted-average
remaining contractual lives of 2.68 years. As of December 31, 2004,
875,000 stock options were exercisable at a weighted average exercise
price of $2.09.
During the three-month period March 31, 2005 no options were granted,
exercised, forfeited, or expired.
All of the Company`s stock options issued were valued at fair value
using an option-pricing model. The fair value of each option issued was
estimated at the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rates
of 2.8% in 2004 dividend yield of 0% in 2004; volatility factors of the
expected market price of the Company`s stock of 0% in 2004; and the
expected life of an option of five years in 2004. The weighted fair
value at the date of grant for options granted was $0.00 per share. No
stock-based compensation costs were charged to operations during the
three-month period ended December 31, 2004.
(4) Employment Agreement
Effective January 1, 2004, the Company entered into a one-year
employment agreement with a former chief executive officer. The
employment agreement provided for i) a base salary of CDN $2,000 per
month, ii) the issuance of 400,000 nonqualified stock options (as
discussed in Note 3 above), and iii) a 5% net operating royalty ("NOR")
on any and all operations acquired by the Company during the term of
the employment agreement. The 5% NOR is calculated based on wellhead
revenue less applicable royalties, costs, and fees of operations
acquired as described in the employment agreement. The agreement was
terminated during the second quarter of 2004.

(5) Contingency
In June 2004, the Company was made aware of a purported claim related
to non-payment for services. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
disposition of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company`s financial position, results of operations or liquidity
and, as such, no accrual has been made in the accompanying financial
statements.
(6) Acquisition of Rocketinfo-Canada
On August 5, 2004, the Company signed an agreement to acquire all of
the outstanding shares of Rocket Technologies Inc. ("Rocket") in
exchange for eight million (8,000,000) shares of Rocketinfo common
stock, and cash payments in the amount of $400,000. The acqusition of
Rocket was not consumated as of December 31, 2004. Management expects
to close on this acqusiontion during the first quarter of 2005. Rocket
is a leading provider of Internet-based search, competitive and
business intelligence solutions that enable event and information
driven enterprises to become more agile and efficient.
On August 5, 2004, the Company`s directors, after having received
written approval from at least 51% of Company`s shareholders entitled
to vote, signed a Unanimous Consent authorizing the change of Company`s
name to Rocketinfo Inc. In conjunction with the name change, the
Company will also change its CUSIP Number and its stock trading symbol.

Business Strategy
-----------------
The Registrant through an agreement concluded in Q4 2004 acquired all of the
outstanding shares of Rocket Technologies Inc. ("Rocketinfo"). Rocketinfo was
and is a "News Infomediary" focusing on delivering a vast range of business and
financial news, utilizing proprietary search-related products and services as
the delivery mechanism. By "news infomediary" we mean a third-party content
syndicator or aggregator who identifies and coordinates the flow of new
information about specific and timely events created at many sources and
distributes it to many outlets through the use of the web.` Rocketinfo`s
corporate mission is to deliver more news to any user`s device, application or
website more quickly, more efficiently and more cost effectively than anyone
else.
While Rocketinfo and its technologies have been painstakingly developed and
tested over the past six years, it is the Company`s emergence in the public
sphere that has afforded us the opportunity to expose the Company`s exciting
suite of news products to an eager worldwide audience. Rocketinfo has three
lines of business:
Firstly we provide individuals and businesses with access to real time news
utilizing our search systems. The company`s corporate clients use Rocketinfo`s
products for intelligence gathering, research, as well as for real-time news and
media monitoring. Our clients can be assured they are getting the news first
Secondly we deliver embedded news search capability to third party applications,
portals and websites. Vendors looking to embed targeted, relevant current news
results into their product offerings or to embed current news search
functionality into those offerings can find all they are looking for from
Rocketinfo. Through our popular Embedded RocketNews search system, the Rocket
Comprehensive Desktop Research tool and the soon-to-be-launched Rocket Desktop
Alert (provisional name) we give businesses, web sites and people real-time
access to news on any topic.
Finally, we provide all types of current news directly to individual consumers.
Through our popular RocketNews current news search engine, the Rocket RSS
Reader, the recently launched Rocket Desktop, and the soon to be available
Comprehensive Desktop, we give people great tools for searching for news on any
topic from our up-to-the-minute database of over 18,000 news sources, along with
thousands of weblogs. We derive revenue from these consumer services by
embedding targeted contextual advertising in our search results.
Since the Internet was commercialized in the mid-90s, it has achieved more rapid
adoption than any other new medium, and Rocketinfo`s news portal Rocketnews.com
is now among the most trusted news sites in the world. Rocketinfo`s founders
originally started out to make Rocketinfo the premier source of current business
news on the Internet. Rocketinfo`s products and services are rapidly expanding
as our aggressive marketing programs are being initiated, but our original goal
remains at the core of our mission today, which is "to deliver current business
news faster, better, and cheaper."
<page>
Our Q1 2005 and 2004 results show the new business of the Company in its most
embryonic stage. The Company had very limited revenue in 2004 as that number is
a reflection of the acquisition of Rocket Technologies in the last quarter of
2004 and shows only the revenue that the private Company was producing with
little or no marketing budget. And while revenues have increased during this
quarter (Q1 2005) we do not expect to see significant increases in revenue until
our new products and advertising initiatives are further along in their
marketing and sales cycle.
What is important to note, however, is that while Rocket is a relatively unknown
Company and technology, it has over the years developed a small but dedicated
list of marquee clients who continue to be dedicated users of the Company`s
products (i.e. Sun Microsystems, Nascar, and the Canadian Department of Foreign
Affairs and Trade). The Company is focused upon continuing these relationships
and expanding the client base as well as the number of eyeballs on Rocketinfo
and its news infomediary tools.
We did not expect to see any major improvement in gross revenue results as a
result of these activities in Q1 of 2005. However, what we did expect and are
currently seeing is a huge increase in interest in the Company`s products and
the signing of several new contracts culminating in the signing of the major
embedded contract with Canada NewsWire (the CNW Group) in December 2004 and the
launching of their major sales program incorporating the Rocket`s news product
at the end of Q1 2005. The results from the Company`s new and existing contracts
will begin delivering continuing increases in revenue in Q2 and beyond.
The goals we set for the Company when we launched the marketing program in terms
of new contracts and estimated increase of interest for Rocketinfo products and
tools have already been met and exceeded. And as our sales and marketing team
continues to expand we are reaching and responding to an ever expanding group of
interested potential clients. We expect the pace of client signings to continue
growing throughout 2005. The new contracts and our existing contracts shall all
contribute to increase revenue for 2005 and beyond.
During the past year advertisers addressed the continued shift in users`
changing media habits by investing more of their advertising dollars online.
With a dedicated and engaged audience utilizing Rocketnews.com and our new
Rocket Desktop download we believe Rocketinfo is well positioned to take
advantage of this shift. We recently introduced advertising into the Rocketinfo
model, and given the incredible growth and rapid expansion in advertiser demand
for quality exposure we anticipate that our advertising revenues will be a major
contributor to the Company`s 2005 revenue.
Our recent contract with targeted internet advertisement supplier Kanoodle
represents our first introduction of advertising. The Rocketinfo RSS feeds with
content targeted ads from Kanoodle can be created using the RocketNews search
engine (www.rocketnews.com) and the Rocket RSS Reader
(http://reader.rocketinfo.com). The company has also integrated Kanoodle ads
into the recently released Rocket Desktop download. Preliminary results are
<page>
showing a very good user response to the ads. Our goal for 2005 is to develop an
advertising business that delivers the best quality audience, a targeted and
effective set of advertising solutions, and high impact results for advertisers.
Innovation and Product Development
As an integral part of the Company`s business strategy we have begun to
relentlessly focus on our technology and increasing the rate of innovation and
product development. The list of detailed accomplishments has been impressive
and there are now numerous products, and systems and enhancements that defines
our Company including:
Rocket Search Technology
------------------------
We have made many improvements to our core search product including,
significantly improving our content scraping and indexing technology to provide
more news, more quickly than other competing services. We also added
personalization software that dramatically improves the quality and relevance of
results through continued usage, effectively "learning" what the end-user is
looking for. We believe that these improvements ensure that Rocketinfo solutions
provide the most accurate and relevant results all without human intervention or
editors.
RocketNews.com Internet News Portal
-----------------------------------
Usage of RocketNews.com, our popular computer generated current news search
portal soared to over 5,000,000 hits and search requests a month. Our free
RocketNews portal now retains search history and allows full personalization in
allows users to obtain current news from over 100,000 business news content
sources ( including 18,000 global information sources and 80,000+ RSS/Atom news
feeds and Weblog Sources). We were exceedingly pleased when, based upon the
comments of many industry analysts and users, RocketNews.com was nominated for a
Webby Award in 2004 as the best news portal on the Internet along with the BBC.
Rocket RSS Products
-------------------
When we began developing RSS products and services very few people knew that RSS
would become a powerful personal news and information tool. The popular
RocketNews current news search engine can now be used to create dynamic
keyword-based RSS feeds for use in any RSS reader, including the company`s own
Rocket RSS Reader. Since introduction last year over 37,000 registered users now
use our RSS products to create personalized search based news feeds. No other
search engine service can match RocketRSS for real-time access to such a huge
and diverse repository of current news and business information
Rocket Content Database
-----------------------
In the past 2 quarters the Rocket content database grew by over 30%. Rocketinfo
now has access to more current news content at lower costs than any other
infomediary. Rocketinfo`s technology can find, index and distribute our content
at lower costs and higher rates of speed than any other infomediaries. We now
offer access to over 100,000 sources of current news and business information
<page>
(with 18,000 primary sources) Our database includes all of the worlds leading
news outlets including Reuters, AP, Bloomberg, the New York Times, BBC as well
as content from specialized content providers such as trade journals, industry
portals, government filings, specialty magazines and the world`s most popular
and dynamic weblogs
Rocket Embedded Marketing Strategy
----------------------------------
The Company is fully committed to its new marketing strategy of allowing major
application software vendors or value added resellers to include or "embed" our
content or search functionality into their products. In aid of this strategy,
Rocketinfo is the first search engine to release a `news and business
information` search API for general use. Our Search API allows companies to
create powerful products that take advantage of our comprehensive current news
content repository. It is now clear that next-generation of business
applications and services requires embedded search and dynamic access to
real-time news & business information and the RocketNews Search API is the first
technology to meet this demand. The verification of this strategy was the
execution last year of our first major embedded agreement with the CNW Group and
their commencement of marketing efforts thereunder at the end of Q1.
Rocket Desktop Search Tools
---------------------------
The recently introduced free Rocket Desktop Search tool (available for download
from www.rocketnews.com). This product represents the second of the three pieces
in our new Desktop Search Suite and is a lightweight application that provides a
convenient, "always-on" way to search for the latest news from the thousands of
sources in the Rocketinfo news database. The new Rocket Desktop gives users the
ability to create and save searches for up-to-the-minute news from today, the
past week or the past month. We also plan to introduce and begin marketing the
RocketNews Alert, a revolutionary desktop application that will provide real
time news alerts (currently in Beta testing), with access to our premium content
and co-market with our popular Desktop Comprehensive Research Tool.
Ongoing Business Plan
The company is focused on several key opportunities ahead.
First, Rocketinfo will focus on building broader exposure to the Company`s
products designed to generate a significant increase in users of our core
products. Today`s world is moving from mass media to "my media", a world in
which the user is the programmer. Rocketinfo aspires to be essential in our
client`s lives. To achieve that, we know we must deliver what users want -- when
they want, how they want, and where they want. The future of Rocketinfo is the
powerful integration of our three pillars: search; content and personalization.
By providing these tools to the marketplace we will be able to deliver enhanced
value to both our clients and Rocketinfo.
Second, Rocket will seek to expand the reach of our content through an increased
array of delivery mechanisms. The continued convergence of broadband and
<page>
wireless presents a big opportunity for Rocketinfo. We believe that in a
connected world users expect their Internet experience across all devices to be
seamlessly integrated, and their news content, to be accessible and
personalized. Rocketinfo is in an excellent position to enrich the experience of
our users across the PC, broadband, and wireless. In the remainder of 2005,
Rocketinfo will aggressively help users "mobilize" their Rocketnews experience.
Third, our goal is to further expand our advertising and marketing services by
increasing our engaged and valuable audiences and providing the most targeted
and contextual suite of marketing solutions. We have recently began our
advertising offerings and expect continued growth in 2005. Major marketers are
now shifting larger percentages of their advertising budgets online as they
recognize that they must reach their audiences in their preferred environments.
Rocketinfo is investing for our future in tools, formats, context capabilities
and data to help define the next phase of advertising for companies.
The Rocketinfo debut has been very encouraging and promises to continue
throughout 2005. The Company now has a seasoned and talented management team and
an enthusiastic employee base that continues to help redefine how current news
is delivered. We have created a clear framework for our business, and we have
been executing against our vision.
Current Operations
------------------
For the period from the Registrant`s inception through the end of the reporting
period, the Registrant has received revenues only in the last two quarters.
Operating activities during the quarter have been related to the commencement of
marketing activities related to the Rocketinfo suite of search, competitive
intelligence and business intelligence products. The Registrant will continue to
implement operations described above to participate in the news infomediary
sector and the marketing of related news content infrastructure services.
The Registrant utilizes the services of full time employees, its Officers and
Directors and experienced industry consultants to conduct business.
Additionally, the Company has been attempting to negotiate financing with which
to continue and expand its business operations. The Company will not be able to
pursue the sales and marketing of its products as aggressively as planned if it
is not able to secure additional financing.
The Registrant has restructured its debt, completed the acquisition of Rocket
Technologies and targeted marketing efforts on increasing sales of products
related to the new Rocketinfo business model. Management has also decided to
hire both additional technical staff to ensure that the Registrant can meet the
demands for its products and additional sales and marketing personnel to
increase sales. Management believes that cash flow from operations related to
the new business model, which is projected to grow significantly during 2005,
will be sufficient to allow the Registrant to continue in business in 2005 and
beyond.
The Registrant`s management and the former management of Rocket Technologies
have been operating the new business venture as described above. There is no
<page>
assurance that the new business venture will prove as successful as anticipated.
The Registrant will also seek additional sources of capital through the issuance
of debt and equity financing.
The Registrant has only limited assets. As a result, there can be no assurance
that the Registrant will generate significant revenues in the future or operate
at a profitable level. In order to succeed, the Registrant must obtain customers
and generate sufficient revenues so that it can profitably operate. The
Registrant in its previous business ventures has been unable to successfully
establish and implement and successfully execute its business and marketing
strategy. The registrant has limited operating history in the news infomediary
sector.
General and administrative expenses
-----------------------------------
General and administrative expenses consist of expenses related to general
corporate functions including marketing expenses, professional and consultant
service expenses, development costs and travel. The Registrant expects general
and administrative expenses to increase as it commences development of
Rocketinfo.
General and administrative expenses totaled $466,473 for the three months ending
March 31, 2005, compared to $22,817 for the three months ending March 31, 2004.
This increase was due to an increase in development, organization, sales and
marketing costs associated with the movement into the news infomediary software
business.
Net Loss
--------
The Registrant incurred a net loss of $394,473 for the three months ending March
31, 2005, compared to net loss of $22,817 in the three months ending March 31,
2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
As of March 31, 2005 the Registrant`s total assets consisted of cash and
accounts receivable in the amount of $221,126 and equipment and goodwill of
$3,998,230 for total assets of $4,219,356 compared to cash in the amount of
$159, equipment in the amount of $3,659 for total assets of $3,818 on March 31,
2004. The Registrant has total liabilities in the amount of $50,000 as of March
31, 2005, compared to $397,092 as of March 31, 2004.
As of March 31, 2005, the Registrant had a working capital surplus of $171,126
and an adjusted accumulated deficit of $3,125,433.
Current funds available to the Registrant are inadequate for it to be fully
competitive in the areas in which it intends to operate. The Registrant will
need to raise additional funds in order to fully implement its business plan and
is currently in the process of raising such funds. The Registrant will attempt
to raise approximately $3,000,000 in additional funds over the next 12 months
<page>
through private placements; however, there can be no assurance that the
Registrant will be successful in raising such additional funds. Regardless of
whether the Registrant`s cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet the
Registrant`s operational needs, the Registrant might seek to compensate
providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash.
The Registrant`s continued operations therefore will depend upon its ability to
raise additional funds through bank borrowings, equity or debt financing. While
the Registrant has been successful in raising funds to date, there is no
assurance that the Registrant will be able to obtain additional funding when
needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on terms acceptable
to the Registrant. If the Registrant cannot obtain needed funds, it may be
forced to curtail or cease its activities.
If additional shares are issued to obtain financing, current shareholders may
suffer a dilutive effect on their percentage of stock ownership in the
Registrant. A large portion of the Registrant`s financing to date has been
through the issuance of shares or through equity financing with share based
collateral. There can be no assurances that the Registrant will become
self-sufficient. Therefore, the Registrant may continue to issue shares to
further the business, and existing shareholders may suffer a dilutive effect on
the price of their shares as well as a loss of voting power in the Registrant.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
The Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Company`s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2004. This evaluation
was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the
Company`s management, including the Company`s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Gary
Campbell, and the Company`s Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Karl Harz. Based upon
that evaluation, the Company`s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that the Company`s disclosure controls and procedures are
effective. There have been no significant changes in the Company`s internal
controls or in other factors, which could significantly affect internal controls
subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports
filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission`s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company`s Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
<page>
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
-----------------------------------------------------
The Company`s management, including the CEO and CFO, do not expect that our
disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial
reporting necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. An internal control
system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable,
not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are
resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative
to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no
evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues
and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These
inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can
be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some
persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the
internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part
upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be
no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under
all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies
or procedures may deteriorate.

ROCKETINFO, INC.
(FORMERLY ZEPPELIN ENERGY INC.)
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
March 31, 2005
(1) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements for the quarter ended March 31,
2005 have been prepared by Rocketinfo, Inc. (formerly Zeppelin Energy
Inc.) (the "Company"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying
un-audited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting
only of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair
presentation of the Company`s financial position and results of
operations for the period presented. The results of operations for the
quarter ended March 31, 2005 is not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year. All references to dollar
amounts are in US$ unless otherwise identified.
The Company`s financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. At March 31, 2005, the
Company had a stockholders` equity of $4,169,356.
In view of these conditions, the Company`s ability to continue as a
going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional
financing or capital sources, to meet its financing requirements, and
ultimately to achieve profitable operations. Management believes that
its current and future plans provide an opportunity to continue as a
going concern. The accompanying interim financial statements do not
include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that may be necessary in the event the Company cannot
continue as a going concern.
(2) Basic Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each
period.

(3) Stock Option Plan
The Company has a nonqualified stock option plan (the "Plan") pursuant
to which up to 1,000,000 shares of its common stock can be set aside to
provide certain executives, directors, and other employees or
consultants the option to purchase shares of the Company`s common
stock. The stock options vest at various increments as specified in the
respective option agreements. As provided by the Plan, the Board of
Directors may waive the vesting provision in whole or in part at any
time based on such factors as the Board of Directors determines at its
sole discretion. The stock options expire 2, 5, and 10 years from the
date of grant or upon termination of employment, retirement, or death.
As of December 31, 2004, 1,025,000 stock options were outstanding with
a weighted-average exercise price of $2.07 and weighted-average
remaining contractual lives of 2.68 years. As of December 31, 2004,
875,000 stock options were exercisable at a weighted average exercise
price of $2.09.
During the three-month period March 31, 2005 no options were granted,
exercised, forfeited, or expired.
All of the Company`s stock options issued were valued at fair value
using an option-pricing model. The fair value of each option issued was
estimated at the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rates
of 2.8% in 2004 dividend yield of 0% in 2004; volatility factors of the
expected market price of the Company`s stock of 0% in 2004; and the
expected life of an option of five years in 2004. The weighted fair
value at the date of grant for options granted was $0.00 per share. No
stock-based compensation costs were charged to operations during the
three-month period ended December 31, 2004.
(4) Employment Agreement
Effective January 1, 2004, the Company entered into a one-year
employment agreement with a former chief executive officer. The
employment agreement provided for i) a base salary of CDN $2,000 per
month, ii) the issuance of 400,000 nonqualified stock options (as
discussed in Note 3 above), and iii) a 5% net operating royalty ("NOR")
on any and all operations acquired by the Company during the term of
the employment agreement. The 5% NOR is calculated based on wellhead
revenue less applicable royalties, costs, and fees of operations
acquired as described in the employment agreement. The agreement was
terminated during the second quarter of 2004.

(5) Contingency
In June 2004, the Company was made aware of a purported claim related
to non-payment for services. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
disposition of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company`s financial position, results of operations or liquidity
and, as such, no accrual has been made in the accompanying financial
statements.
(6) Acquisition of Rocketinfo-Canada
On August 5, 2004, the Company signed an agreement to acquire all of
the outstanding shares of Rocket Technologies Inc. ("Rocket") in
exchange for eight million (8,000,000) shares of Rocketinfo common
stock, and cash payments in the amount of $400,000. The acqusition of
Rocket was not consumated as of December 31, 2004. Management expects
to close on this acqusiontion during the first quarter of 2005. Rocket
is a leading provider of Internet-based search, competitive and
business intelligence solutions that enable event and information
driven enterprises to become more agile and efficient.
On August 5, 2004, the Company`s directors, after having received
written approval from at least 51% of Company`s shareholders entitled
to vote, signed a Unanimous Consent authorizing the change of Company`s
name to Rocketinfo Inc. In conjunction with the name change, the
Company will also change its CUSIP Number and its stock trading symbol.

Business Strategy
-----------------
The Registrant through an agreement concluded in Q4 2004 acquired all of the
outstanding shares of Rocket Technologies Inc. ("Rocketinfo"). Rocketinfo was
and is a "News Infomediary" focusing on delivering a vast range of business and
financial news, utilizing proprietary search-related products and services as
the delivery mechanism. By "news infomediary" we mean a third-party content
syndicator or aggregator who identifies and coordinates the flow of new
information about specific and timely events created at many sources and
distributes it to many outlets through the use of the web.` Rocketinfo`s
corporate mission is to deliver more news to any user`s device, application or
website more quickly, more efficiently and more cost effectively than anyone
else.
While Rocketinfo and its technologies have been painstakingly developed and
tested over the past six years, it is the Company`s emergence in the public
sphere that has afforded us the opportunity to expose the Company`s exciting
suite of news products to an eager worldwide audience. Rocketinfo has three
lines of business:
Firstly we provide individuals and businesses with access to real time news
utilizing our search systems. The company`s corporate clients use Rocketinfo`s
products for intelligence gathering, research, as well as for real-time news and
media monitoring. Our clients can be assured they are getting the news first
Secondly we deliver embedded news search capability to third party applications,
portals and websites. Vendors looking to embed targeted, relevant current news
results into their product offerings or to embed current news search
functionality into those offerings can find all they are looking for from
Rocketinfo. Through our popular Embedded RocketNews search system, the Rocket
Comprehensive Desktop Research tool and the soon-to-be-launched Rocket Desktop
Alert (provisional name) we give businesses, web sites and people real-time
access to news on any topic.
Finally, we provide all types of current news directly to individual consumers.
Through our popular RocketNews current news search engine, the Rocket RSS
Reader, the recently launched Rocket Desktop, and the soon to be available
Comprehensive Desktop, we give people great tools for searching for news on any
topic from our up-to-the-minute database of over 18,000 news sources, along with
thousands of weblogs. We derive revenue from these consumer services by
embedding targeted contextual advertising in our search results.
Since the Internet was commercialized in the mid-90s, it has achieved more rapid
adoption than any other new medium, and Rocketinfo`s news portal Rocketnews.com
is now among the most trusted news sites in the world. Rocketinfo`s founders
originally started out to make Rocketinfo the premier source of current business
news on the Internet. Rocketinfo`s products and services are rapidly expanding
as our aggressive marketing programs are being initiated, but our original goal
remains at the core of our mission today, which is "to deliver current business
news faster, better, and cheaper."
<page>
Our Q1 2005 and 2004 results show the new business of the Company in its most
embryonic stage. The Company had very limited revenue in 2004 as that number is
a reflection of the acquisition of Rocket Technologies in the last quarter of
2004 and shows only the revenue that the private Company was producing with
little or no marketing budget. And while revenues have increased during this
quarter (Q1 2005) we do not expect to see significant increases in revenue until
our new products and advertising initiatives are further along in their
marketing and sales cycle.
What is important to note, however, is that while Rocket is a relatively unknown
Company and technology, it has over the years developed a small but dedicated
list of marquee clients who continue to be dedicated users of the Company`s
products (i.e. Sun Microsystems, Nascar, and the Canadian Department of Foreign
Affairs and Trade). The Company is focused upon continuing these relationships
and expanding the client base as well as the number of eyeballs on Rocketinfo
and its news infomediary tools.
We did not expect to see any major improvement in gross revenue results as a
result of these activities in Q1 of 2005. However, what we did expect and are
currently seeing is a huge increase in interest in the Company`s products and
the signing of several new contracts culminating in the signing of the major
embedded contract with Canada NewsWire (the CNW Group) in December 2004 and the
launching of their major sales program incorporating the Rocket`s news product
at the end of Q1 2005. The results from the Company`s new and existing contracts
will begin delivering continuing increases in revenue in Q2 and beyond.
The goals we set for the Company when we launched the marketing program in terms
of new contracts and estimated increase of interest for Rocketinfo products and
tools have already been met and exceeded. And as our sales and marketing team
continues to expand we are reaching and responding to an ever expanding group of
interested potential clients. We expect the pace of client signings to continue
growing throughout 2005. The new contracts and our existing contracts shall all
contribute to increase revenue for 2005 and beyond.
During the past year advertisers addressed the continued shift in users`
changing media habits by investing more of their advertising dollars online.
With a dedicated and engaged audience utilizing Rocketnews.com and our new
Rocket Desktop download we believe Rocketinfo is well positioned to take
advantage of this shift. We recently introduced advertising into the Rocketinfo
model, and given the incredible growth and rapid expansion in advertiser demand
for quality exposure we anticipate that our advertising revenues will be a major
contributor to the Company`s 2005 revenue.
Our recent contract with targeted internet advertisement supplier Kanoodle
represents our first introduction of advertising. The Rocketinfo RSS feeds with
content targeted ads from Kanoodle can be created using the RocketNews search
engine (www.rocketnews.com) and the Rocket RSS Reader
(http://reader.rocketinfo.com). The company has also integrated Kanoodle ads
into the recently released Rocket Desktop download. Preliminary results are
<page>
showing a very good user response to the ads. Our goal for 2005 is to develop an
advertising business that delivers the best quality audience, a targeted and
effective set of advertising solutions, and high impact results for advertisers.
Innovation and Product Development
As an integral part of the Company`s business strategy we have begun to
relentlessly focus on our technology and increasing the rate of innovation and
product development. The list of detailed accomplishments has been impressive
and there are now numerous products, and systems and enhancements that defines
our Company including:
Rocket Search Technology
------------------------
We have made many improvements to our core search product including,
significantly improving our content scraping and indexing technology to provide
more news, more quickly than other competing services. We also added
personalization software that dramatically improves the quality and relevance of
results through continued usage, effectively "learning" what the end-user is
looking for. We believe that these improvements ensure that Rocketinfo solutions
provide the most accurate and relevant results all without human intervention or
editors.
RocketNews.com Internet News Portal
-----------------------------------
Usage of RocketNews.com, our popular computer generated current news search
portal soared to over 5,000,000 hits and search requests a month. Our free
RocketNews portal now retains search history and allows full personalization in
allows users to obtain current news from over 100,000 business news content
sources ( including 18,000 global information sources and 80,000+ RSS/Atom news
feeds and Weblog Sources). We were exceedingly pleased when, based upon the
comments of many industry analysts and users, RocketNews.com was nominated for a
Webby Award in 2004 as the best news portal on the Internet along with the BBC.
Rocket RSS Products
-------------------
When we began developing RSS products and services very few people knew that RSS
would become a powerful personal news and information tool. The popular
RocketNews current news search engine can now be used to create dynamic
keyword-based RSS feeds for use in any RSS reader, including the company`s own
Rocket RSS Reader. Since introduction last year over 37,000 registered users now
use our RSS products to create personalized search based news feeds. No other
search engine service can match RocketRSS for real-time access to such a huge
and diverse repository of current news and business information
Rocket Content Database
-----------------------
In the past 2 quarters the Rocket content database grew by over 30%. Rocketinfo
now has access to more current news content at lower costs than any other
infomediary. Rocketinfo`s technology can find, index and distribute our content
at lower costs and higher rates of speed than any other infomediaries. We now
offer access to over 100,000 sources of current news and business information
<page>
(with 18,000 primary sources) Our database includes all of the worlds leading
news outlets including Reuters, AP, Bloomberg, the New York Times, BBC as well
as content from specialized content providers such as trade journals, industry
portals, government filings, specialty magazines and the world`s most popular
and dynamic weblogs
Rocket Embedded Marketing Strategy
----------------------------------
The Company is fully committed to its new marketing strategy of allowing major
application software vendors or value added resellers to include or "embed" our
content or search functionality into their products. In aid of this strategy,
Rocketinfo is the first search engine to release a `news and business
information` search API for general use. Our Search API allows companies to
create powerful products that take advantage of our comprehensive current news
content repository. It is now clear that next-generation of business
applications and services requires embedded search and dynamic access to
real-time news & business information and the RocketNews Search API is the first
technology to meet this demand. The verification of this strategy was the
execution last year of our first major embedded agreement with the CNW Group and
their commencement of marketing efforts thereunder at the end of Q1.
Rocket Desktop Search Tools
---------------------------
The recently introduced free Rocket Desktop Search tool (available for download
from www.rocketnews.com). This product represents the second of the three pieces
in our new Desktop Search Suite and is a lightweight application that provides a
convenient, "always-on" way to search for the latest news from the thousands of
sources in the Rocketinfo news database. The new Rocket Desktop gives users the
ability to create and save searches for up-to-the-minute news from today, the
past week or the past month. We also plan to introduce and begin marketing the
RocketNews Alert, a revolutionary desktop application that will provide real
time news alerts (currently in Beta testing), with access to our premium content
and co-market with our popular Desktop Comprehensive Research Tool.
Ongoing Business Plan
The company is focused on several key opportunities ahead.
First, Rocketinfo will focus on building broader exposure to the Company`s
products designed to generate a significant increase in users of our core
products. Today`s world is moving from mass media to "my media", a world in
which the user is the programmer. Rocketinfo aspires to be essential in our
client`s lives. To achieve that, we know we must deliver what users want -- when
they want, how they want, and where they want. The future of Rocketinfo is the
powerful integration of our three pillars: search; content and personalization.
By providing these tools to the marketplace we will be able to deliver enhanced
value to both our clients and Rocketinfo.
Second, Rocket will seek to expand the reach of our content through an increased
array of delivery mechanisms. The continued convergence of broadband and
<page>
wireless presents a big opportunity for Rocketinfo. We believe that in a
connected world users expect their Internet experience across all devices to be
seamlessly integrated, and their news content, to be accessible and
personalized. Rocketinfo is in an excellent position to enrich the experience of
our users across the PC, broadband, and wireless. In the remainder of 2005,
Rocketinfo will aggressively help users "mobilize" their Rocketnews experience.
Third, our goal is to further expand our advertising and marketing services by
increasing our engaged and valuable audiences and providing the most targeted
and contextual suite of marketing solutions. We have recently began our
advertising offerings and expect continued growth in 2005. Major marketers are
now shifting larger percentages of their advertising budgets online as they
recognize that they must reach their audiences in their preferred environments.
Rocketinfo is investing for our future in tools, formats, context capabilities
and data to help define the next phase of advertising for companies.
The Rocketinfo debut has been very encouraging and promises to continue
throughout 2005. The Company now has a seasoned and talented management team and
an enthusiastic employee base that continues to help redefine how current news
is delivered. We have created a clear framework for our business, and we have
been executing against our vision.
Current Operations
------------------
For the period from the Registrant`s inception through the end of the reporting
period, the Registrant has received revenues only in the last two quarters.
Operating activities during the quarter have been related to the commencement of
marketing activities related to the Rocketinfo suite of search, competitive
intelligence and business intelligence products. The Registrant will continue to
implement operations described above to participate in the news infomediary
sector and the marketing of related news content infrastructure services.
The Registrant utilizes the services of full time employees, its Officers and
Directors and experienced industry consultants to conduct business.
Additionally, the Company has been attempting to negotiate financing with which
to continue and expand its business operations. The Company will not be able to
pursue the sales and marketing of its products as aggressively as planned if it
is not able to secure additional financing.
The Registrant has restructured its debt, completed the acquisition of Rocket
Technologies and targeted marketing efforts on increasing sales of products
related to the new Rocketinfo business model. Management has also decided to
hire both additional technical staff to ensure that the Registrant can meet the
demands for its products and additional sales and marketing personnel to
increase sales. Management believes that cash flow from operations related to
the new business model, which is projected to grow significantly during 2005,
will be sufficient to allow the Registrant to continue in business in 2005 and
beyond.
The Registrant`s management and the former management of Rocket Technologies
have been operating the new business venture as described above. There is no
<page>
assurance that the new business venture will prove as successful as anticipated.
The Registrant will also seek additional sources of capital through the issuance
of debt and equity financing.
The Registrant has only limited assets. As a result, there can be no assurance
that the Registrant will generate significant revenues in the future or operate
at a profitable level. In order to succeed, the Registrant must obtain customers
and generate sufficient revenues so that it can profitably operate. The
Registrant in its previous business ventures has been unable to successfully
establish and implement and successfully execute its business and marketing
strategy. The registrant has limited operating history in the news infomediary
sector.
General and administrative expenses
-----------------------------------
General and administrative expenses consist of expenses related to general
corporate functions including marketing expenses, professional and consultant
service expenses, development costs and travel. The Registrant expects general
and administrative expenses to increase as it commences development of
Rocketinfo.
General and administrative expenses totaled $466,473 for the three months ending
March 31, 2005, compared to $22,817 for the three months ending March 31, 2004.
This increase was due to an increase in development, organization, sales and
marketing costs associated with the movement into the news infomediary software
business.
Net Loss
--------
The Registrant incurred a net loss of $394,473 for the three months ending March
31, 2005, compared to net loss of $22,817 in the three months ending March 31,
2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
As of March 31, 2005 the Registrant`s total assets consisted of cash and
accounts receivable in the amount of $221,126 and equipment and goodwill of
$3,998,230 for total assets of $4,219,356 compared to cash in the amount of
$159, equipment in the amount of $3,659 for total assets of $3,818 on March 31,
2004. The Registrant has total liabilities in the amount of $50,000 as of March
31, 2005, compared to $397,092 as of March 31, 2004.
As of March 31, 2005, the Registrant had a working capital surplus of $171,126
and an adjusted accumulated deficit of $3,125,433.
Current funds available to the Registrant are inadequate for it to be fully
competitive in the areas in which it intends to operate. The Registrant will
need to raise additional funds in order to fully implement its business plan and
is currently in the process of raising such funds. The Registrant will attempt
to raise approximately $3,000,000 in additional funds over the next 12 months
<page>
through private placements; however, there can be no assurance that the
Registrant will be successful in raising such additional funds. Regardless of
whether the Registrant`s cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet the
Registrant`s operational needs, the Registrant might seek to compensate
providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash.
The Registrant`s continued operations therefore will depend upon its ability to
raise additional funds through bank borrowings, equity or debt financing. While
the Registrant has been successful in raising funds to date, there is no
assurance that the Registrant will be able to obtain additional funding when
needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on terms acceptable
to the Registrant. If the Registrant cannot obtain needed funds, it may be
forced to curtail or cease its activities.
If additional shares are issued to obtain financing, current shareholders may
suffer a dilutive effect on their percentage of stock ownership in the
Registrant. A large portion of the Registrant`s financing to date has been
through the issuance of shares or through equity financing with share based
collateral. There can be no assurances that the Registrant will become
self-sufficient. Therefore, the Registrant may continue to issue shares to
further the business, and existing shareholders may suffer a dilutive effect on
the price of their shares as well as a loss of voting power in the Registrant.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
The Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Company`s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2004. This evaluation
was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the
Company`s management, including the Company`s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Gary
Campbell, and the Company`s Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Karl Harz. Based upon
that evaluation, the Company`s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that the Company`s disclosure controls and procedures are
effective. There have been no significant changes in the Company`s internal
controls or in other factors, which could significantly affect internal controls
subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports
filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission`s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company`s Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
<page>
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
-----------------------------------------------------
The Company`s management, including the CEO and CFO, do not expect that our
disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial
reporting necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. An internal control
system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable,
not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are
resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative
to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no
evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues
and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These
inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can
be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some
persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the
internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part
upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be
no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under
all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies
or procedures may deteriorate.

Überschrift und Bilanz passen hier aber gar nicht zusammen
Rocketinfo to Power SmallBusinessSearchEngine.com Portal
Sunday , May 22, 2005 22:19 ET
Rocketinfo (OTCBB:RKTI) today announced that the Business Exchange Network, Inc. has selected Rocketinfo search technology to power custom search on their Small Business Search Engine portal (www.smallbusinesssearchengine.com), a powerful new small business search engine and directory for small business owners and individuals exploring entrepreneurship.
Rocketinfo will also provide the Business Exchange Network with targeted, relevant small business headlines for the network of U.S. regional small business portals supplied by the Business Exchange Network. Included in the 20 affiliated websites are www.USABizMart.com and www.BizBen.com. As the Business Exchange Network expands the number of its websites, Rocketinfo`s capacities will be built in to each one.
Rocketinfo CEO Gary Campbell said, "The Business Exchange Network is a great customer for us. They have an exciting strategy for reaching small businesses across America, and we`re elated to have been chosen to supply them with critical components in their content offering."
Campbell added, "What their end users will experience is a robust site that provides not only searchable listings of small businesses for sale or seeking investment but also niche news selected from our database that is relevant to users on that site. They will be able to find business opportunities and news related to those opportunities quickly and in one place. In addition, the site contains tools such as a debt service calculator, on-line workshops and a buyer profile form to facilitate the sale of small businesses."
Peter Siegel, president of SmallBusinessSearchEngine.com, said, "We needed a full service current news and business information solution to provide our audience with content that is relevant to their interests. The day is over when a website can commercially flourish without such a solution. Rocketinfo is able to provide us with the content and search functionality we need, and the integration process has been quick and seamless, and we will expand the number of end users viewing its embedded advertising."
