Fucked Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fucked Company is a website created by Philip J. Kaplan as a "dot-com dead pool"[1] which reports dot-com or technological companies having serious or embarrassing problems. [2] The web site also sells 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.
