More dot-com insanity

Feb 13, 2008 10:28

There's a reason why my Facebook profile says "dot-com hater", and some recent news items can help explain it all.

All of you hear about the Microsoft-Yahoo news. All the roller coaster comments on blogs, news wires and business commentaries is enough to make anyone want to move to the most censored section of North Korea. I'm just working like usual and so far so good. Some people really like us (or just think our logo is cute), some really hate us (or just think Google is better). It all comes out when something newsworthy happens. We must be doing something good I guess. Some say we're worth $31 a share, others a say we're worth $40, others say we're worth $0.01. Its all relative.

In other hellacious news, I must be in the wrong business. Hot or Not was bought for $20M. 2 guys, a few servers and pictures of chicks and dudes getting rated by bored internet idiots. The site makes money by advertising and a premium fee if you want to hook up. Whoever thought this was worth $20M needs to get a reality check and all of their common sense privileges shoved out the door.

Still surviving...
