`There are a bunch of resumes on the street,'' said Sean Doherty, an AtHome co-founder who now runs Urban Media Communications, a Palo Alto startup.

I received the following pertinent comment from a source:

"Sean Doherty was hired as a director of customer service and schmoozed Will Hearst who promoted him to VP of ATHM when there were only 50 total head count in the company. He botched that so badly he was exiled to @Work where he spent 3 months doing nothing. When TJ was hired, the first thing he figured out is that Sean Doherty was a scam artist. He fired him within a week. Sean then started "Urban Media". They provide free broadband access to buildings with multiple tenants in the hopes that they can "upsell" those presumably value added services in the future. It's a complete ponzi scheme. They have been around for years and have the inside of a doughnut to show for their efforts. Here's the best part. They literally cut and pasted the @Home web site and changed the company name and the color scheme. They pasted Urban Media on it. Same source code. This guy is spawned from the cesspool that is Silicon Valley. Now he is quoted by an idiot trying to appear like he knows something no one else does. Brain drain at ATHM, my ass. The dead wood is being fired left and right and this fool is asking the person who was fired two years ago what is going on. I wish I could put that article in its place but I guess it doesn't matter either way. It just pisses me off that people will believe that."
