Cybersquatting

If you have the time, please take a listen to the youtube version of The Pensblog staff on the WDVE morning show. WDVE morning show is a syndicated morning radio show out of Pittsburgh, PA. Bascially the guys from The Pensblog describe thier Cyber Squatting situation.

A little more background that I can supply includes the rinkotology explanation. Rinkotology was created by the founders of The Pensblog as a way for fans to get into the Stanley Cup playoffs by submitting their picks for the current Stanley Cup Playoffs bracket. It is similar to a March Madness bracket pool manager that you might find at sportsline.com or espn.com. The participants (myself included) donate money to the Mario Lemieux Foundation in order to submit their entry to the bracket contest. The winner of the contest gets signed memorabilia, Penguins gear, etc.



And since it couldn't fit into one video:



This cyber squatting think has gotten a little out of hand. It makes me wonder if I should go out today and buy myname.com so that when I get famous, I won't have to worry about someone linking some smut to my name.
