 PROFILE
Office.com wants to be the home on the Web for small- and medium-sized businesses. Its Web sites (office.com, atyouroffice.com, individual.com) offer news and research on industry, business tools, community forums, and e-commerce. The company's free content includes regional news; industry and business topic snapshots; video and audio Webcasts; and forums on technology, staffing, and other areas. Office.com attracts more than 2.5 million visitors monthly and generates sales through advertising and e-commerce. Broadband services firm Winstar owns two-thirds of the company, and CBS owns the rest. Caught in the dotcom and advertising crash, Winstar and Office.com have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
