For me crunchbase is a good idea since it sum up information not always available on corporate website like amount raised... But i do agree with you Nic, outbound like are good but cost you because it reduces your # of VP. So since the advertising industry is still lagging and we are in a phase of rentability we should see more of this in the coming years. Nevertheless, i do feel that it destroys value for me as a user (again maybe not with crunchbase but they should put both links). Semantic will probably do more arm like this. People with larger properties will be rebuilding what's available elsewhere. Web is jungle ! There is a cost to don’t do evil !
