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]
