Hate to bust your bubble...but this one has a long way to go. One thing about the big boys (YHOO, XCIT) is that they have their own sales team. This one doesn't. It uses 24/7. 24/7 is VERY GOOD, but they keep a very large % of the revenue they generate. In addition, they discount the # of page visits their sites actually generate. This diminishes the value of each site by a proportion (not entirely calculable, either, since it is subjective). It's a great idea, but it has a long way to go before it's a legit play. If you make some short term cash on it, great. But I don't see it as a real player.
