The week gets off to a rockin’ start with an expired domain name and paperwork galore back in blighty for the new house. And it’s only just 6am!
This morning, the podshow.com homepage became a parking page from GoDaddy.com
Come on guys. You get millions in VC money and you can’t keep your domains registered. I guess all the money in the world doesn’t buy you a competent IT department or at least somebody with a credit card that’s not expired.
Technorati tags: adam curry, podshow, godaddy, domains
I can imagine a conversation something like this between Ron Bloom and Adam Curry early Monday morning:
Adam: Ron? What the f**k? All I see at the Podshow site is a GoDaddy parking page. By the way, I had a great flight on Virgin Airways and the entire flight crew said they’re folders - isn’t that great? But hey, what the f**k’s up with our site?
Ron: Adam, you big-haired fag, I thought I told you to pay the $6.95 domain name fee before the last time you went back Guildford. You have GOT to spend less time thinking about Karmyn Tyler’s tits and focus, dude!
Adam: Hey, duuuuuude - I’m an artist - you’re the one who watches the money. Hey, Ron, are YOU a scruncher? You sure are uptight - typical scruncher behavior if you ask me.
Ron: Oy! Enough with the scruncher, already! I can’t find the corporate VISA card. Come to think of it, I haven’t seen Michael Butler OR the card in about a week. Someone told me he and his band are going to Japan. You don’t suppose …
Adam: Speaking of Butler, that putz has got some naked pictures that belong to me.
Ron: Naked pictures? Scrunching? ADAM, enough! Focus, dude! Our site’s on its knees like Madge Weinstein in front of Mark Sukiyaki Nemcoff, and we’re gonna look that ridiculous or worse in about two hours when the word gets around.
Adam: Duuuuude! Eeeeeew!! That’s a horrible visual, you’re really harshing my mellow.
Ron: Good, we need to get this fixed, dude, or those venture dudes who gave us money will wonder what we’re *really* doing with their money.
Murphy - brilliant - just brilliant. Sadly, I think this is exactly what happened.
Keep up this great resource. best greetings!
