OT: How to value a domain (not for sale)

As part of a business planning exercise, I need to put a rough value on the intagible asset "knowledge.com". It is NOT currently for sale, please don't ask. I was hoping that some kind folks could point me in the direction of any evidence of domain name sales or similar that would at least help guestimate a nominal value. Anecdotal (sp?) eveidence of business.com and wallstreet.com on this list in the past helps, but if there is anything more concrete, I would greatly appreciate it. I will be happy to summarise to the list if anyone provides public information that I can republish. Regards, -- Peter Galbavy Knowledge Matters Ltd. http://www.knowledge.com/

I would treat it as intellectual property, myself... the benefits of a well-chosen domain name are similar to the benefits of a well-chosen trademark for brand-building purposes, etc. -- North Shore Technologies, Cleveland, OH http://NorthShoreTechnologies.net Steve Sobol, BOFH - President, Chief Website Architect and Janitor Spammers and Net-abusers: Don't bother asking me for service.
