Item 2.    ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
------

     On July 24, 2000, InfoSpace, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("InfoSpace")
entered into a definitive agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") to acquire from
the shareholders of TDLI.com Limited, a privately held company based in
Hampshire, England ("TDLI"), all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
TDLI.. TDLI holds approximately fifty percent of TDL InfoSpace (Europe) Limited,
a joint venture originally formed by InfoSpace and Thomson Directories Limited
in July 1998 to replicate InfoSpace's services in Europe. The acquisition of
TDLI, which gave InfoSpace control of TDL InfoSpace, was completed on August 31,
2000.

     Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, InfoSpace issued 3,424,308 shares of
its common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of TDLI capital
stock, options and warrants, 163,831 shares of which will be deposited into an
escrow account to secure certain representations and warranties made by certain
of its significant shareholders and former directors. For accounting purposes,
the acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase. The transaction is valued
at approximately $131 million.

     The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
