According to Eddie Lee Rider, vice president and editor-in-chief of Vulcan Outdoors, ``We were in the throes of our own Internet initiative, when we were approached by xoutdoors.com. Xoutdoors.com had such an overwhelming edge with their technology, and their broadscope vision of the Internet industry and how it would serve not only the public as the premier outdoor Website but how they are working with the outdoor industry on a business-to-business level. It was in everyone's best interests to merge our talents and efforts."

Jeff Edwards, xoutdoors.com president, says in the announcement, "Technology is everything in today's business world. Internet business will soon be the basis for virtually all business -- including the outdoor industry. Xoutdoors.com not only has the outdoor experience, but we offer a wealth of Internet and computer technical experience as well.
