LinkedIn lost its domain?
Last night I noticed that LinkedIn.com is now a GoDaddy.com parked page [screen cap]… That’s a huge deal as said site was a major “Social Software” networking site. Major.
Instead of plugging it here, I gave the scoop to WeblogsInc, because they promise on their site they will credit stories. It’s more their kind of story anyway. Well, they posted it, but made no mention of me. Sad.
So if you’re listening Jason, you’re welcome. No hard feelings. I just want a little linkage from the meat space. If it turns out they really did lose their domain name, this is the social software story of the year. It would be nice to have others know I was involved.
Update: Jason says he got it from somewhere else first. He must just have been slow posting the story, as I sent it in > 12 before it got posted. In other news, LinkedIn is back in action. This concludes today’s internet scandal.
We got the story from someone before you and that person didn’t want credit… they told us “you didn’t hear it from us.”
The LinkedIn site seems to be up and running now. I never went to it before so I don’t know if it is even the same company there now…but it definitely isn’t a GoDaddy parked page.
Puh-leaze! Ditch your self importance and acknowledge that one other person in the world may have submitted the story before you! Jeepers.
PB: Thanks for giving no personal info–that was real telling. Until you do so, I’ll continue scooping :P.
should you trust your story to weblogsinc?
