That $3 million valuation is batshit. Internet business sell in multiples of monthly earnings not annual earnings.

Good business I'd imagine with the advertising model it has developed over the years. As a useful information source I think its an excellent site and I enjoy the photography and travel sections.

The site operates largely on the efforts of some very talented, knowledgeable moderators. Apparently all unpaid. Honestly, I don't know why people devote their waking lives to this business in which one man will likely gain millions on the sale, never mind the $50,000+ a month in revenue.

Well I hope they don't change too much about TV. Despite sometimes overly zealous mods and the rabid posters, it is the go to site for information on Thailand.
