Congratulations. Letting go of a pet project is hard, but it’s for the best here as you’ve explained — to let it survive and grow.

Interesting. This is the first local Web 2.0 service acquired by another company? Looks like we’re all moving towards the new IPO (which is really a misnomer, since nobody wants to go public anymore nowadays)

* – new IPO: start a new company, be big, and sell away! Hahahah

A few people have asked Enthropia’s reasoning behind buing the domain. Our response:

We didn’t make the site to make money. It may make us some down the road, but really this was about us connecting with filipino bloggers. We created the original BlogTopSites.com, which tracks over 5 million pageviews a day. By taking over Pinoy Top Blogs we aim to promote friendly competition between pinoy bloggers.

Furthermore – we are a Filipino company. You can see on our homepage all of our sites are .com.ph – we build filipino-centric websites for filipinos on the filipino domain space – it is what we do.

We are working on an importer to move the data from the old site to the new one. We are aiming to relaunch the site near the end of September

Jaypee – Wow! You’re like the answer to my prayer — except that I don’t pray and if I did it wouldn’t be for an end to dating spam since there are much more important things. So I suppose this means you’re like the answer, period. Thanks!

@Gigi – No problem. Btw, the answer to your question would be, “you’d still find those dating spam posts but you won’t see them for long coz I’ll be deleting them as soon as I see them.” Hehe
