I have done quite a few deals over the years. It is always nice to get press coverage of a deal. The Mediabistro deal we announced last week tops the charts in terms of online and ink coverage.

Some pieces were flattering, some were not. Yesterday Simon Dumenco over at New York Magazine online wrote a terrific piece about the deal and the founder of Mediabistro, Laurel Touby. It is on the mark.

In the few days since we closed the deal we have had several meetings between the key players at both companies. We are more enthused than ever about the many ways both organizations will be able to grow various business lines. I will keep readers informed.
