Plaxo may be sold for $200 million, or an Address-Book 2.0- that had its own Social Life and now costs mega bucks

I have known today from TechCrunch that Plaxo is gonna be sold for some mega-money, 100M to 200M bucks! I am in shock, if Plaxo costs these money I can imagine what will happen in the 2008, when the new energy start-ups like Spock are gonna become much mature and attract everyone's attention.

of course I was commenting there about why I do not believe Plaxo costs these money (although if I am sincerely happy for those guys- get the money and go in Caribs!). It was also funny 'coz maybe somebody knows, the President and CEO's of Plaxo surname is like of me- he is Mr. Ben Golub!

+ another thing has attracted my attention- the author said that Plaxo is a competitor European Xing :) Why?

read the original material and, maybe also my comments, here-
