Fucked Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from FuckedCompany)
Fucked Company was a website created by Philip J. "Pud" Kaplan as a "dot-com dead pool"[1] which chronicled failing and troubled companies in its unique and abrasive style after the dot com bust in 2000.[2] The web site also sold rumor listings to subscribers.
The site's name is a parody of Fast Company, a magazine that began covering technology companies during the Internet dot-com boom.
As of August 2007, the site ceased posting new content.[3] As of 2011, it has a message on the main page saying:
"Fuckedcompany is... fucked.
R.I.P. 2000-2007. If you're just now seeing this website for the first time, ask someone who was in the internet business during "round 1" to tell you all about it."
