The Oxygen Network (http://network.oxygen-inc.com) is indeed a non-profit organization because it supports a variety of sites from different individuals who cannot afford to run their own server or need help getting started.

The Oxygen Network was originally started in 1999. Toby Butterfield, Oprah's legal representive, had a past legal dispute in early 2005 with the Oxygen Network. It was found that Oh Oxygen did NOT succeed with the dispute since there was no relation between the two sites and Oh Oxygen was only international in 2000. (Of course emails can be provided proving this fact) I should also add that whether or not people intend to search for Oh Oxygen and get the Oxygen Network is of no relevance. The Oxygen Network has worked hard to receive it's current footing. It would be as if someone was searching for Apple Computing and inadvertantley went to Apple Corp's website.
