Li of Forrester said Go2Net's destination site - which features the Metacrawler search engine, the Useless Pages, financial chat site Silicon Investor as well as games, news and sports - has always been a laggard. Any purchaser would most likely be interested in buying the company's 12 million plus visitors. But many of those visitors might flee if they're merged into yet another portal, she said. "I'm sure Disney thought about selling Go.com (its portal site) and realized that there would be very few buyers, and instead shut it down," she said. "InfoSpace may have to do the same." Geez K. I just PM'd you that I thought this may be the direction of SI. Then you post this-yikes! Dan's worried this might become a Xahoo! thread...we may not be given the chance to have that much fun before we find ourselves all on that site. Puna
