Valentines and Raising Money

If you haven't already, send some Valentine's day cards to someone you care or love. www.cardvio.com. Lately, I've been all about just building my own cards from scratch with pictures (and yes, I actually use the product). Lastly, read about the youtube guys pulling in about 300 million from the Google acquisition. Not sure how I feel about it, amazed they did it in 18 months, but think Google overpaid and we'll have to see how they monetize the investment. I understand that part of the purchase was a defensive stance, but still think it's an over valuation. I heard a VC say that they thought Google could pull 150 million a year if they just put adsense advertising on the site, which means that paid 11x on their money, that doesn't sound so bad, but they have yet to do it.
