		<description><![CDATA[Ask.com has officially finished its purchase of Dictionary.com, Thesaurus.com, and Reference.com.
The acquisition &#8212; first announced back in May &#8212; is now a done deal, with the full parent company Lexico now under Ask.com&#8217;s control.
The companies still haven&#8217;t disclosed a price, though some reports have put it in the $100 million range.
