HERE IS A LINK TO A GREAT ARTICLE ABOUT THE VALUATION OF THE INTERNET: it is appropriately called "Caught in the Web" stocksite.com a small excerpt: For the edification of readers, we've thus put together an index of 18 of these sucker-bait stocks: the "Observer Internet Sucker's Index". And with nearly every stock in it, from AMZN (Amazon.com Inc.) to XCIT (Excite), the pattern is the same - a post-IPO price surge fueled by unharnessed hype regarding the future of the Internet, followed by a dose of reality as it became clear just how distant any profits really were. enjoy.........;^)
