I think that sounds like a fair price based on other acquisitions taking place. You can see how many DAU they had on FB, they were thriving.

this is interesting to me, given the silly discussion about the $1B price point (this is why BusinessWeek doesn't get tech) - clearly Goodreads users are not worth as much as LinkedIn users or even FB ones.
