I've seen a picture of the car crashed and read the news but I still cannot believe that Cory Rudl is dead.

My heart and prayers go out to his wife and family. I pray that God will comfort them at this time and that out of this tragedy good will come. God is mysterious!

Cory's passion for racing cars was matched only by his passion for Internet marketing. He built a substantial Internet business with annual sales of over $6 million. Over the past ten years he's generated more than $40 million in sales. He was the "complete Internet Marketer"!

I met Corey Rudl four years ago in London, England at a conference. My first impression was that he's young and quick with his tongue. He spoke fast! I later discovered that this was in keeping with the natural pace of the Internet and his dedication to being on its cutting edge.

Cyberspace will zoom on but it won't be the same without Cory Rudl. It was only two days before his death that I received an email from him telling me how tired he was at just completing a project and that he needed some sleep. Even if he did not send the email personally, it had his signature all over it.

Many said he was the first to invent "Affiliate Program" and I have no doubt that he was.

I can see him now at the Hotel in London on that cold autumn's day describing how I can profit by becoming his affiliate and the special bonuses I would earn. I still have that power point presentation.

Wherever you are Cory Rudl I'm in no doubt that you'll be the fastest speaker. Cyberspace will not be the same without your passion and zeal. You got your wish even though you never intended it to be this way.
