Shouldn't your title be "Official SEEK Hypester" <g>.
Did you have a chance to catch Steve Harmon's ISR from last Friday: isdex.yahoo.com. He gives an interesting explanation on how to try to compare the valuation of the traditional media companies with the, shall I be so bold to say, the next generation of media companies. I love the first line of the article where he says, "how come Gannett, which... reaches about 23 million, is an $18.5 billion market cap firm, while Excite, with a reach of about 20 million via the Web, sits at $1.3 billion?"
He gives a nice table that compares Gannett, Comcast, Disney, Yahoo, Excite, and AOL in terms of users, market cap, market cap/user, revenue and revenue multiple. Very interesting indeed.
Happy SEEKing...
