you're comparing a hot air balloon with another one

Could be....Jeeves growing >21 percent a month...(last month)
and they've already reached critical mass.
I think lots of Cross cultural opportunities...
I understand how they derive their revenues...
(as opposed to InfoSpace)...
I'm all for growth if they meet a niche and have a specific Brand..In the case of jeeves..I think they they meet a need of Common Language questioning,,,without parsing....
With Infospace...
I can't understand What device is going to allow their product's demand to explode to the masses...
I don't see it...
I don't see the demand..
It's a novelty...
Jeeves meets a need...
It's simple...
It will grow in proportion to the growth away from AOL...
It's growth is accelerating recently...
I have always been surprised with the accelerating growth of Jeeves....and started questioning why....

Spytrdr, this was actually a very prescient post of yours:

you're comparing a hot air balloon with another one impristine.

(When imprisitine was comparing ASKJ to INSP.)
Look how silly it all seems now, eyeballs, page views.
It was a historic mania.

But, based on this post, It looks like you didnt short at 300, but at 270....it also implies you probably stoppped out and covered at some point,,,oh well, close enough,,,you may have reshorted...you WERE pretty fanactical about whata fake stock it was.
