I don't think that's the smartest move Askjeeves has ever made.

343 million for those two peices of crap ?

I think they would have been better off starting something new from scratch - think what Gigablast could be if someone pumped 2 - 3 million dollars into it.

Jeeves is still not a player in the market...they need to focus on branding more than money for a few minutes.
