Some of my previous employers were below:

Allconnect.com: $290,561  (Given the ROI, they may jump at an offer for $300K. hehe) 
Autotrader.com: $22 Million (If this property were for sale, there would be an extra zero behind it.)
Kudzu.com: $2.99 Million (Probably the most spot on market valuation in this group if we were talking a full business acquisition)
Macys.com: $27 Million (Missing three zeros)

Others of note:

Facebook: $7.9 Billion
Twitter: $1.7 Billion
Myspace:  $724 Million (Looks like Timberlake got a good deal)
