Getting 1.6B will never be a "bad move" considering you're not making any money since inception hehe.

OT: What happened to ICQ? Yan ang binili dati ng AOL na talagang sikat noon. Billion Dollar deal din yata yan. Meron pa bang gumagamit ng ICQ?

Yeah, mura pa talaga yun. Kung yung Facebook nga, priced at 2B USD na tapos limited pa yung kini-cater na audience, papaano pa kaya ang YouTube.
