Lycos: Bought For $5.4B, Sold For $36M

Lycos (remember them?), bought for $5.4 billion way back in 2000, sold today for $36 million in stock purchase agreement.

Lycos, the ill-fated operator of a search engine, Web portal and whatnot originally established in 1994 (!) has a new owner – once again. India-based digital marketing solutions company Ybrant Digital has purchased Lycos from Korean Internet company Daum for a reported $36 million in a stock purchase agreement.
