Technorati Aquisition Rumors
A post today by B.L. Ochman ignited rumors that Technorati may be acquired in the near future:
Technorati About to Be Sold
Here’s a tip I was given this morning from a venture capitalist who is “heavily invested” in the blogosphere: Technorati is about to be sold to a large search engine company. The deal should go down in about a week.
My bet is on Yahoo! Where’s yours?
True? Wild speculation? We have no idea. Sure are a lot of acquisition rumors this week though.
Is this story (“Murdoch is Set to Buy a Search Company”) related? It looks like we’re not the only ones seeing the connection.
Update: Jeff Jarvis says “I’m seeing rumblings that it’s not true.”
