I would use LinkedIn, or if you email me I can put you in touch with a few folks who might be able to help.

You'd also be surprised at the recipient lists behind the "contact us" forms on a lot of the major sites. e.g. http://www.indeed.com/jsp/contactus.jsp

Thank you - I'll send you an email shortly.

One thing I'm wondering about is, should you email them with your price or ask them for an offer?

Why not just build your user base and work to make sure your feature set is competitive or better? They'll come to you eventually.

You'd be surprised at the number of small-scale acquisitions that occur after a casual mention or demonstration of a site.
