Fucked Company was a website created by Philip J. "Pud" Kaplan as a "dot-com dead pool" that chronicled troubled and failing companies in a unique and abrasive style after the dot com bust in 2000. 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 and later converted its main page to the simple message:
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.
Famous quotes containing the word company:
“All I can tell you with certainty is that I, for one, have no self, and that I am unwilling or unable to perpetrate upon myself the joke of a self.... What I have instead is a variety of impersonations I can do, and not only of myself—a troupe of players that I have internalised, a permanent company of actors that I can call upon when a self is required.... I am a theater and nothing more than a theater.”
—Philip Roth (b. 1933)
