QuikQuote: The head of Walt Disney's Internet unit said the company has been in discussions to sell the Web search technology it acquired in two boom-era deals valued at more than $2 billion. Larry Shapiro, executive vice president of operations and business for the Walt Disney Internet Group, said Monday the company had been approached by Web-search providers looking to buy Infoseek's patents and technology.
"If we got the right price we'd certainly consider it," said Shapiro, who declined to give further details.
