If a company like Communty Connect can only get a $38 Million dollar valuation, and a site like Meebo can get a $850 million dollars valuation and acquisition, and it has less then half the traffic of CC’s one property, Blackplanet.com, its a very sad day indeed. A quick query on Compete can show you what I mean: http://siteanalytics.compete.com/blackplanet.com+meebo.com+myspace.com/?metric=uv Toby “URBANTECH” Morning Its a great acquisition for Radio One, but a very sad day for minority owned and focused internet start ups.
