Excerpt from:
Om Malik on Broadband � Six Apart to buy Live Journal
EXCLUSIVE: Folks have been predicting a big year for mergers and acquisitions in 2005, and we are starting the year with a bang. I have learnt exclusively that Six Apart, the parent company behind hosted blogging service TypePad, and Moveable Type is about to acquire Live Journal, for an undisclosed amount. The deal is a mix of stock and cash, and could be announced sometime later
this month, according to those close to the two companies. If the deal goes through, then Six Apart will become one of the largest weblog companies in the world, with nearly 6.5 million users. It also gives the company a very fighting chance against Google%u2019s Blogger and Microsoft%u2019s MSN Spaces.
Hmmm…
Thanks for the link. I posted it in my LJ.
