Business.com Gets $6.5 Million

Paid Content reports Business.com's $6.5M round of financing led by IVP. Company also raised a $10M round only a few months ago (November) led by Benchmark. No valuation on the past 2 rounds, but the round done in Sept. 11, 2000 was done at a bubble esque $176M post ($61M raised). This latest round was most likely done at a higher valuation.

Interestingly Business.com has added people search, an area where Google has not entered and others like Lycos have (w/ a partnership with Eliyon, who by the way lists Google and Yahoo as HR customers.)
