The buzz this week seems to be the potential sale of Business.com for $400+ million.  There was an article in the Wall Street Journal on this. 

 

 

For those attorneys in technology, they may be tracking the buzz.  Business.com is a web directory based on business topics.  Similar to blog sites, Business.com makes it money through paid search advertising.  Some reports indicate that Business.com has a revenue of about $15 million per year.   Is the $400+million price fair?  How would the price affect the value of businesses that give away their services for free, and rely on ad revenues for money?  Will there more M & A in this space?

 

How does this affect the offline world?  There are already two bay area newspapers that are letting go employees because of decreased ad revenues.  Will there be too many places for people to advertise on the Internet that it will soon become too commercialized such that users will not want to be on sites with all the clutter?
