Captivate Network Inc. has signed several new content partners for
its network of elevator Internet screens. The new partners are Belo
Interactive, Bridge News, SFGate.com, and weather.com.
The elevator screens are connected to the Internet through wireless

information to riders of office-building elevators.
The screens have been installed in more than 50 office towers in New
York City; Chicago; Stamford, Conn.; Boston, and San Francisco, with
450 more under contract across the country and expected to be completed
within the next 12 months. When the network is fully deployed, the
company says it will reach 3-4 million people and deliver 66 million
impressions daily.
Other content providers to the network include The New York Times on
the Web, boston.com, bostonherald.com, and chicagotribune.com.
