                                EXPLANATORY NOTE

      Jupiter  Media  Metrix,   Inc.  (the   "Registrant")   hereby  amends  its
Registration  Statement on Form S-4 (No.  333-42316)  (the "S-4") by filing this
Post-Effective  Amendment  No. 1 on Form S-8  (the  "Post-Effective  Amendment")
relating to its common  stock,  par value $0.01 per share (the "Common  Stock").
The S-4 registers 19,046,596 shares of Common Stock,  including 4,116,159 shares
of Common Stock for issuance  upon exercise of options  granted  pursuant to the
terms of the Jupiter  Communications,  Inc. 1997 Employee  Stock Option Plan and
the Jupiter  Communications,  Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan  (collectively  the
"Plans").

      On September 20, 2000, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger,  dated
as of June 26, 2000, as amended, among the Registrant,  MMX Acquisition Corp., a
wholly-owned  subsidiary of the Registrant  ("MMX") and Jupiter  Communications,
Inc. ("Jupiter"),  the following events (among others) occurred:  (a) MMX merged
with and into Jupiter,  with Jupiter  surviving as a wholly-owned  subsidiary of
the Registrant  (the  "Merger");  (b) each  outstanding  share of Jupiter common
stock,  par value  $0.001 per share,  other than those shares held by Jupiter as
treasury  stock,  the Registrant or any of their  respective  subsidiaries,  was
converted  into a right  to  receive  0.946  of a share  of  Common  Stock;  (c)
outstanding  options  to  purchase  Jupiter  common  stock  under the Plans were
converted into options to purchase Common Stock; and (d) the Registrant  assumed
the Plans.

      Prior to the Merger,  shares of Jupiter  common stock were  registered
for issuance  under  the  Plans  pursuant  to  Registration  Statement  on Form
S-8, Registration No.  333-91513.  As a result of the Merger,  shares of Common
Stock will be issued to the  participants in the Plans upon the exercise of
options or other awards granted under the Plans. The purpose of this
Post-Effective Amendment is to register shares of Common
Stock for issuance pursuant to the Plans.

      The  designation  of this  Post-Effective  Amendment as  Registration
No. 333-42316-01  denotes  that the  Post-Effective  Amendment  relates  only
to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of stock options or other
awards outstanding under the Plans as of the date of the S-4 and that  this is
the  first  Post-Effective Amendment to the Form S-4 filed with respect to such
shares of Common Stock.

                          PART II

               Information Required in the Registration Statement

      (b)   The  Registrant's  Quarterly  Reports  on Form  10-Q for the  fiscal

            on May 15, 2000 and August 8, 2000, respectively;

      (c)   The Registrant's  Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on
            March 20, 2000, June 27, 2000,  September 14, 2000 and September 22,
            2000; and

      (d)   The description of the Registrant's Common Stock contained in Item 1
            of the Registrant's  Registration Statement on Form 8-A dated May 3,

      In addition to the  foregoing,  all  documents  filed  pursuant to Section
13(a),  13(c),  14 or 15(d) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "1934 Act") after the date of this Registration  Statement and prior to the
filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered
hereby have been sold or which  deregisters all securities then remaining unsold
shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement

contained in a document  incorporated  or deemed to be incorporated by reference

Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any
subsequently filed document which also is deemed to be incorporated by reference

Registration Statement.

"DGCL")  permits  indemnification  of  directors,  officers  and  employees of a

Certificate  of  Incorporation  and By-laws of the  Registrant  provide that the
Registrant  shall  indemnify its  directors  and officers to the fullest  extent
permitted  by  the  Delaware  Law,   including  those   circumstances  in  which
indemnification would otherwise be discretionary, subject to certain exceptions.
The By-laws also provide that the Registrant shall advance expenses to directors
and officers  incurred in  connection  with an action or  proceeding as to which
they may be  entitled  to  indemnification,  subject to certain  exceptions.  In
addition,  the  Registrant  has  entered  into  Indemnity  Agreements  with  its
directors and officers providing the maximum  indemnification allowed by Section
145 of the DGCL.

Item 7.     Exemption from Registration Claimed

      Not Applicable.

Item 9.  Undertakings.
         ------------

      (a)   The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

            (1) to file,  during any  period in which  offers or sales are being
      made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement

                  (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
            the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act"),

                  (ii) to reflect in the  prospectus any facts or events arising
            after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most
            recent post-effective  amendment thereof) which,  individually or in
            the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
            forth in this Registration Statement, and

                  (iii) to include any material  information with respect to the
            plan of distribution not previously  disclosed in this  Registration
            Statement  or any  material  change  to  such  information  in  this
            Registration Statement;  provided,  however, that clauses (1)(i) and
            (1)(ii) shall not apply if the  information  required to be included
            in a  post-effective  amendment by those  paragraphs is contained in
            periodic  reports filed by the Registrant  pursuant to Section 13 or
            Section  15(d) of the 1934 Act that are  incorporated  by  reference
            into this Registration Statement;

            (2) that for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933
      Act  each  such  post-effective  amendment  shall  be  deemed  to be a new
      registration  statement relating to the securities offered therein and the
      offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
      bona fide offering thereof; and

            (3)  to  remove  from  registration  by  means  of a  post-effective
      amendment any of the securities  being  registered  which remain unsold at
      the  termination of the Jupiter  Communications,  Inc. 1997 Employee Stock
      Option Plan or the Jupiter Communications, Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan.

      (b) The undersigned  Registrant  hereby  undertakes  that, for purposes of
determining  any liability  under the 1933 Act, each filing of the  Registrant's
annual  report  pursuant to Section  13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act (and
where  applicable,  each  filing of an employee  benefit  plan's  annual  report
pursuant to Section  15(d) of the 1934 Act) that is  incorporated  by  reference
into  this  Registration  Statement  shall be  deemed  to be a new  registration
statement relating to the securities  offered therein,  and the offering of such
securities  at that time shall be deemed to be the  initial  bona fide  offering
thereof.

      (c) Insofar as indemnification  for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act
may  be  permitted  to  directors,  officers,  or  controlling  persons  of  the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing  provisions,  or otherwise,  the Registrant
has been  advised  that,  in the  opinion of the SEC,  such  indemnification  is
against  public  policy  as  expressed  in the  1933  Act,  and  is,  therefore,
unenforceable.  In the  event  that a claim  for  indemnification  against  such
liabilities  (other than the payment by the  Registrant of expenses  incurred or
paid by a director,  officer,  or  controlling  person of the  Registrant in the
successful  defense of any  action,  suit,  or  proceeding)  is asserted by such
director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the


                                      II-3
<PAGE>   5

question  whether  such  indemnification  by  it is  against  public  policy  as
expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

      Pursuant to the  requirements  of the  Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets
all of the  requirements  for  filing  on Form  S-8,  and has duly  caused  this
Post-Effective Amendment to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto duly  authorized,  in the City of New York, State of New York on this
4th day of October, 2000.
