Crowdgather is the company that owns Yuku.

On Tuesday, an interesting press release titled, "CrowdGather Trims Sites, Edges Toward Breakeven" came out. Anyone else find it odd that they barely said a word about the sites they "trimmed?" Why is it a good thing? Did they sell communities to get some much needed cash? Did they cut costs by dumping properties that weren’t making them money? If they're just cleaning out garbage, why would that bear mention in a press release, let alone share the headline?

Or are they actually just trying to spin the recent loss of top Yuku communities like SixPackSpeak and NikeTalk (the #1 site on the whole network)? If so, saying they "trimmed" sites is like saying that Kris Humphries and Tom Cruise recently "trimmed" spouses. They got dumped.

Not an encouraging trend.

Incredible.

When you're lumped in with a NIKE site, you've officially made it. If it were an ADIDAS site, it wouldn't be near as impressive though***

Seriously though, that's 17ing cool

One more thing....

to those guys who constantly complain that this place is going the wrong direction and that you don't like the posts here anymore: suck it.

Ehh - it's just a yahoo financial forum for Crowdgather but it made me laugh.

Buzzkill. For a minute, I thought a finance reporter mentioned us and grouped us with Nike. I'm going to back away from my intention to nominate this thread for SPS remembers.

Niketalk is an un-affiliated message board. They talk about black market Nike shoes and **** like that. Think Turtle from Entourage.

They get ridiculous traffic though.

Awesome, DS. This is second only to Scout's big announcement of acquiring Jorts Monthly right? Oh, wait a minute . . . . (never happened).
