Join Bode.com (Redux) or Don't try to Join Bode.com because it's no longer a site
UPDATE (March 11, 2006): This will come as no shock to you, gentle reader, but I'm a wee bit slow on the uptake. This site has already come and gone and I just learned that Opus Creative, here in Portland, helped Weiden + Kennedy, also here in Portland, build the now infamous (if only in my mind) join bode.com. If I'd been paying attention, I could have actually dragged my lazy rear-end up to OHSU to hear Opus talk about the site. And then maybe, just maybe, I wouldn't have gone to join bode.com. But this is 20/20 hindsight at this point.I'm writing because I'm hoping that someone at Opus (make that someone period) reads this. You see, unfortunately, as I've mentioned (ad nauseam by now), the site has been closed. Even more unfortunate is the fact that the folks at Opus continue to link a big splashy front page to the join bode site. Of course, you'll notice that I, too, am still linking to join bode.com, because all the cool kids are doing it. If they'll stop, I'll stop. Maybe.
ORIGINAL POST:
I am sad to report that Join Bode.com, or joinbode.com (but not join bode.com), is no longer among the living. Rest in peace, fair site. Rest in peace.
This, of course, does not mean that my original post on the subject of Join Bode.com is any less engaging. Or any less funny. It was never that funny. But as for engaging? Quite the contrary, in fact. It's all the more engaging because of this recent news. At least, that's what I'll tell you. Read on, gentle reader, read on.
