this is an excellent piece that describes perfectly why i feel that judging popular web properties solely on the basis of revenue generated may lead to undervaluation. the data – in the right hands – can have immense value

I think the argument still leads to a revenue discussion. If Google can capture all that data and it’s of value, then it should fundamentally increase it’s ability to generate revenue. Revenue can come from many different sources, but “being popular” does not mean that a web property will generate returns. Buying a company has to return something to the shareholders… I still think some of the recent activity and rumors of activity involve speculative, unfounded cases…. but that’s just me…
BTW, I think Senor Barr needs to try Ubuntu… would make his office look better 😉
