"to one of saying that commercially they are poised and can go ahead fast from here."

Which was the whole point of the merger. In the cold light of day, two months on, the directors were right, securing the long term future of the company.

Is it possible Yoo could become a sexy share to own this year, in a sexy fashionable sector. Institutions start to buy in and anything can happen.

80P and the drinks are on me. 500 behind the bar!

reminder of some of the words in Dr Michael Sinclairs last trading statement 31 March 2004:-

"I am confident that, thanks to the quality and dedication of our extraordinarily talented and creative team, we can take this business to the next level"

Well, I think we are well and truly into the next level.

We have taxied down the runway now, so prepare for lift off !!!!!!!!!

Can't wait to hear what he has to say next month

Yoomedia PLC
10 February 2005


This announcement amends the announcement sent yesterday, 9 February at 17.04,
RNS number 4341I.


The Company was notified on 8 February 2005 and not 8 January 2004 as originally
stated.


YooMedia PLC (the 'Company')


HOLDING IN COMPANY

The Company was informed on 8 February 2005 by Universities Superannuation
Scheme Limited that they have an interest in 14,900,000 ordinary shares of 1p
each in the Company, representing 3.3 per cent. of the issued share capital of
the Company.

These shares are registered in the name of Chase Nominees Ltd (USS).

10 January 2005

This information is provided by RNS
The company news service from the London Stock Exchange

mactavish - 10 Feb 2005 11:38 - 561 of 3776

The 14,900,000 shares, purchased by the Universities Superannuation
Scheme Limited, were I beleive, bought at 17p.

This amounts to a 2.53m investment in an AIM listed company, by the U.K.'s second largest pension scheme. The risk in holding Yoomedia, now appears to have deminished further.

1m of buys in the last 20mins. Never seen anything like this. The buying is relentless.

Someone knows something!

Madison - 10 Feb 2005 13:53 - 568 of 3776

Now over 5m

Can someone shed some light?

mactavish - 10 Feb 2005 13:54 - 569 of 3776

Up 2p now I think people must be waking up at last to the potential that is in this share. What with Lloyds Bank getting on board and USS second biggest pension fund in the country and pension scheme of the year 2004.

mactavish - 10 Feb 2005 15:16 - 570 of 3776

250k "M" trade just went through.

You must be smirking all over your fat chops!

I wait for months for a rise and you get it in one day!

That's the way of the world though!

Poverty - 10 Feb 2005 16:58 - 572 of 3776

Subsumed by the dark side.... I have bought one or two shares in YOO (POOMedia!) again - "people waking up to the potential" - I don't believe that - there were loads of individual buys today after nothing for weeks - you saying all these people have the same alarm clock!? - Nah - there's something in the wind here.....

EWRobson - 10 Feb 2005 17:38 - 573 of 3776

iPublic. First: have got a bit of a smirk although the holding is relatively small beer compared to yours; after 3 bad bounces on previous visit, got a nice kick off the side of the bunker to nestle against the flag! Second: which pub? London OK? 80p, well that's probably around October, to be cautious, which sounds as good a time as any!

Anywhere in London ,once the SP reaches 80p. Investors on other BB's have also expressed an interest previously. Nothing to celebrate yet, but in time.......

Book a hotel room, as you will be in no fit state to go home to the wife!

Poverty.

You should have followed my example, averaging down at 17.25P, spending 20.5k.

This is only the begining!

I.M.H.O.

For the new investors, take a look at this recent news.

http://www.yoomedia.com/pdfs/MediaGuardian.pdf

"The take-up rate has been fantastic. It taps directly in to what everybody is doing on their mobiles anyway but it also plugs into what they normally do, which is shout at the telly with the right or wrong answer,"

"Launched first in the UK but also rolling out in France, Germany and Slovenia,
the Walkaway game is also helping to stem the fall in ratings in the 105 territories in which the show now airs."

"Walkaway gives viewers additional reasons to stay with the show. It extends the
vitality of the programme."

"Celador said it was planning to roll out the show across many of its international markets that supported Yoo Mobile's time-stamping technology."

Been out all day. Glad to see this one up after the wait. Looks like people are finally coming to their senses.

iPublic - 10 Feb 2005 19:16 - 577 of 3776

More fantastic news for Yoomedia. Not long before all manufactures follow Sony's lead.

"Hot on the heels of Ofcom's digital switchover timetable being published, consumer electronics giant Sony has announced all its television receivers larger than 26 inches will be digital-only."
