Susan I am too busy digging up smut.....I am copying some of the more interesting posts from the last link I provided......several others were interesting but had no intrinsic value although I must admit I enjoyed the one about joni hanson

uuhhh...sorry to tell ya, but INSP is losing Vodaphone/Australia and soon. Vodaphone/Australia is going with Vizzavi as their primary content provider. Wanna verify this? Just send an email to Vodaphone's IR department and ask!!

I wonder who will drop InfoSpace next?
Sounds like a "Deadpool" moment!

------------------------------------------------------------------------Hey Naveen, how much SLA $ did you lose in the data center move that was supposed to be done in Oct, happenend in Nov, then whoops everything went down, so it became Jan, now Feb, now who knows.
If you can't even move a few servers how the blank do you expect to run a company?
I've sent a note to every carrier letting them know about Infospace's internal engineering issues.

I work in the wireless group at INSP. Not only did Arun Sarin leave, but the head of wireless, Kent Hellebust also quit last month and his replacement Arif is on his way out. Ask them why the carriers are so fed up with INSP.

The carriers know what is coming and so does Infospace. We were in a carrier meeting last week where the carriers asked us to tell them why we thought we'd still be in business next year. They are all silently building this stuff in house.

The only people left in the wireless group are incompetent shits who couldn't get a job at Kmart. Is this the team that is going to build your trillion dollar company Naveen? HA HA HA
gy and our 2001 priorities. Your attendance is mandatory.

et this: Go2Net, now part of InfoSpace, has most of its engineering at Seattle's Pier 70 (where Real World was a few years back). Welp, yesterday (Monday), a bunch of people get e-mail for this big meeting down the street at Pier 66. When they get there, they find that they've all been laid off, and they can't go back to the building until Saturday to pick things up.

Gotta love it.

Here is how they got fired with this notice

When: Monday, Feb. 5
