Ask.com Acquires Dictionary.com, Reference.com, and Thesaurus.com

Askquisition

Looks like they've decided to redefine themselves as a reference tool.

Pretty interesting

The Lexico acquisition will grow the Ask Network user base to more than 145 million unduplicated monthly unique users (UUs) worldwide, an increase of 11%, according to March 2008 comScore data.

Nice Bump in Traffic

Great to see Ask.com realizing they needed to do something if they want to maintain or gain market share in their very competitive market. I'm a big fan of these sites and look forward to seeing what Ask.com can do to improve on them.

Hopefully they won't pull a broadcast.com on these (like I'm sure Yahoo would find a way to accomplish)! :notme:

Awesome news for Ask.com. Most people I know went from ask to Google. Now at least they will have more opportunities. Never knew about Broadcast.com
