Sold!

April 1, 2006

I am pleased to announce that JakeBouma.com has been purchased! Do you remember this post? Well, a guy by the name of Jake Bouma (not me) who works for Mozilla, the company that develops the Firefox web browser, e-mailed me and gave me an offer for the domain name. He is planning on turning the website into a development blog for Lightning, which is new a calendar application from Mozilla. His page will replace mine this Wednesday, and when I get back to school I'll work on getting a new website up and running.

I am not allowed to say just how much money at this point, but it is more than this. Can you say "new laptop"?

UPDATE: April Fool's! Tons of people fell for this. Actually, everyone to whom I have talked fell for it, but some figured it out soon thereafter. I received congratulations via IM, telephone, in person, etc. If only it were true...

DUDE! Way to go, bro! Sucks that your year long “jakebouma.com” explosion is over, but it obviously wasn’t a waste. So, obviously, because all your friends visit so often it made your site worth more which leads me to the question: WHATS MY CUT!?!?!? Just kidding. See you soon.
