Jeeves Expected to Leave Ask Very Soon
Loren Baker from SearchEngineJournal picks up on
the mascot deathwatch at Ask Jeeves with his recent post " Time for
Jeeves to Sleep with the Fishes ".
Noting a number of signals sent by new owner Barry Diller, Loren may have found the actual reason the affable (or for some, laughable) butler may soon be dismissed. It seems that Jeeves and Barry Diller look so similar they could be related. Now, nobody is claiming these two were separated at birth, at least not in these pages however the familiar resemblance is simply too striking to ignore. Some might speculate a family dispute over money led to the imminent dismissal of the world's most popular butler but a recent Google search of Barry Diller reveals the following facts about his life, address and other highly personal facts... <self-censored due to fears of info-chill> In all seriousness, Ask is likely going to rebrand itself in the very
near future, one that will not include the butler. |
