the mint, a daily business periodical in india, carried a story today that reported indian social networking site desimartini.com has been acquired by hindustan times media (ht media) for “under $10MM” as was quoted by an ht executive. i was honestly left a bit speechless, but i tip my hat to vivek pahwa and the team for pulling this off. after reading the paper, though, i tried to see if anything had changed at desimartini since the last time i visited the site, and i found this:
wow…hmmm…*cough*….$10MM….yeahhhhh………..
I think they forgot to add ‘a lot less than’ $10 million…
