Please note that we have removed a few of the charts from the W eb 2.0 Weekly that are better looked at on a monthly
basis, as opposed to weekly.

March activity on pace with busy February: At the halfway point of March, there have been 13 financings announced
(total $73.2 million, average $5.6 million) compared to 25 financings announced in February, totalling $185.5 million, or
$7.4 million on average (Figure 2). The average value for February was above the $6.8 million average for January, with
four financings over $15 million in February (Twitter, Synthasite, Tremor Media, and Offerpal Media) vs. no deals over $15
million in January.
