Congrats Jason Calacanis!
Ripping through the blogosphere tonight is news that Weblogs Inc. just got bought by AOL. Congratulations Jason, that’s quite a sum to walk away with :)
For AOL, I bet the $20-35 million was a bargain. Think about how much content, how many channels, and most importantly how many consistent eyeballs they are getting. From AOL’s perspective, that money is pocket change anyways and it might turn out to be a brilliant strategic move.
Oh, and if anyone wants to buy my blog, just name your price :-P

Rubbing my eyes, Mark I thought it was the story of your transition from Go-ogle to Plaxo that was worth a lot of money!
