Kevin Ham Makes a Major Move Aimed at Becoming a Global Leader in Interactive Media

Dr. Kevin Ham's Reinvent Technology is making a bold move toward becoming a major player in the convergence of TV and the Internet. In a bid to become a global leader in interactive media, Reinvent has just appointed the man who launched Oprah Winfrey's TV talk show to a newly created Executive Senior VP position.

If what I read about Kevin Ham and Hitfarm is true, then DNjournal.com's story seems a BS love-fest about an infamous typo-squatter, and is a sad commentary about the desperate state of ppc schemes, dnjournal owner's quest to keep its portfolio worth something in a recession, and the extent to which fellow domainers will stoop to in order to make sure the "heavy hitters" are totally greased, at the expense of transparency.

My opinion is to take what dnjournal spews with a grain of salt, and for domainers here to read the posts at domainstate.com and elsewhere about the typosquatting history of Hitfarm with Kevin Ham at the helm, the ".cm" cesspool, and other bottom-feeding trends.

Another wonderful piece of journalism Ron. Do you need more tissues?

Regardless of the previous ventures, names like Mother.com and God.com becoming "21 Century TV stations" is something to be watched carefully as it progresses.

The development of a success domain-to-tv venture could be the footprint for future development in this area.
Once it has been done successfully one time, the masses will follow-up.

Although Sam saying he could "one day" see kids passively watching the Disney Channel and the interactive DisneyChannel..com on the same television monitor is, well, that's already happening. Seems he needs to get caught up or maybe I have mis-understood what was written.
