The rats are starting to scurry.

Relevant Knowledge downloads your user information to a web site called relevantknowledge.com (among others). relevantknowledge.com is owned by MarkMonitor, Inc, which was recently aquired by Thomson-Reuters.

Guess who just started sniffing around my LinkedIn page? You guessed it , Thomson-Reuters. And what does Thomson-Reuters do? Oh yeah, they are a news company.

Now can you guys understand why I did not want to click on rajoo's news link?

I think they are Ayn Rand zealots.

I'm rollin'. They hatin'.

Here is an interesting bit of news. A protoge' of MarkMonitor's CEO went to Ireland and operates a similar company there. Check out what happened in Ireland and who chimed in with a comment.

RelevantKnowledge.com and Reuters show up in this book, "Handbook on Electronic Commerce". Might be an interesting read. Or a disgusting one. Depends on which end of the f*cking you are on I guess.

Hey eBacon, are you this stupid or easily intimidated or both?
Here is how I introduced myself on this forum, my very first post:
"My user name in AK is "rajoo" but on this forum chosen the name "BeamOn" so I can shed some light on this troubled world we live in. Actually it's the name of my company and we have a cool logo that I plan to use as my avatar if I am allowed to hang around long enough. An engineer by education (Illinois) and a long time small business owner without any affiliation to business groups."
That is full disclosure you idiot. And I am known as the founder of Beam On Technology. President/CEO is the required legal titles for incorporation (C corp.)
So WTF am I hiding? You need to come out of what ever hell hole you live in.
I will not permit assholes like you to ever besmirch my integrity, ever.

You may have gotten hit in the crossfire. If so I apologize. But please take away a lesson -- keep your business and politics seperate. No good comes of mixing the two.

Now go ask Obama for more tech money and STFU. You probably want something in return for the $750 you donated to him.

Do you want to keep going? I can do this shit all day.

I have better things to do like run a small company, pay taxes and so on. You on the other hand can spew venom all day. Now please GFY and not too kindly please.

Have a nice day, job creator. Tell your Ayn Rand buddies I said hi

It appears that RelevantKnowledge started out as a clean company. Here is an article from 1998 where they provided traffic data on the growing internet.
