Hill, Holliday, Connors, Cosmopulos’ latest work for Terra Lycos seeks to inspire Internet surfers to check out the Lycos portal’s features and functions.

The campaign from the Boston agency broke late last week. It drops the client’s 2-year-old “Dig deeper” positioning but retains ad icon Anna Kour n i kova, who appears briefly in a tennis clip used in a fast-moving montage of colorful images. The overall effort is themed “Inspiration,” though no tagline appears in the ads.

One 30-second commercial opens with a man sitting in front of his computer, searching Lycos’ site.
