PROFILE |

Virtual Communities, Inc. (VCI), hoped to turn online communities into offline profits. The company suspended operations in 2000 and sold off its VirtualJerusalem.com and VirtualHolyLand.com Web sites. VCI continues to seek buyers for its remaining sites, VirtualIreland.com, VirtualIndia.com, and VirtualItaly.com, hoping it can at some point resume operations related to its Cortra Site Suite community management software. The firm also provides a range of professional services, such as editorial consulting, advertising sales, strategic planning, and marketing. Heuristic merged with Virtual Communities in late 1999 after receiving negative customer feedback for its IntelliFit System (personalized exercise prescriptions).
