Leave it to the guys at Wired. Sort of follows on the theme of recent days, 
with Google being valued on the stock market at more than all of these old 
school media corporations. Personally, I don't buy it. Google is a good 
company, but their current valuation is totally insane and unsustainable. Their 
PE this morning is 280. What! eBay's current PE is 51, Amazon is 24. Microsoft, 
which is enormously profitable, pays a dividend, has a competing search 
service, and has roughly 24 *times* the revenue of Google, only has a PE of 27. 

People may say, "Sure, but Google's brand, blah blah blah!" Don't buy it. This 
pig is headed for a major correction sooner or later.
