About.com! A major bout with the flu!

I am actually glad I don't hold the stock - I don't have the stomach to ride out stuff like this - but I have done a ton of DD on About.com and I have absolute confidence in their future.

They may have to make an acquisition to consolidate their lead in the space. I hope they have enough cash from their IPO that they can just unfold their business plan without caring about stock fluctuations.

Am I still down on the name "About"? Not really, except that I still think it is a conspiracy to ensure that they can keep a sharp watch on their Canadian employees who will pronounce it Aboot. :)

Anyone who bought Excite or Netscape when they dropped down to such low levels would be very happy today.
