Garrrh!!!

I was never much of a fan of Rocketboom before last week’s fiasco. But I really, really wanted them to succeed in spite of it. To show those old media farts how it’s done (or something).

But 72 hours of launch announcements? More than 45 hours late?

I mean, c’mon, how long does it take to make a 3 minute show?!

Mark’s right. Over-promise, under-deliver, right?

And, really, this all just goes to show one fundamental truth. Business partnerships are like marriages. If you don’t communicate and suddenly stop having sex, they tend to fall apart really, really quickly.

Update: Rocketboom lives. 2:23pm EST. Not sure it’s very funny or whatever, but it’s… different. And different is good :)
