Doesn’t anybody else find this a little creepy? I mean, I am all for adoption and all that, but could you imagine yourself growing up in a data center? Maybe this will be one more way to raise super Web hosting gurus that by the time they are adults will rule the world of Web hosting.
This gives “get ‘em while they’re young” a whole new meaning.
New York web hosting provider Weblinkhosting has announced its intention to adopt a boy (rather than a girl) under its company name.
As you may remember, Weblinkhosting circulated a press release suggesting it intended to legally adopt a child to ‘live at the company’s data center and be provided with food, clothing, shelter and love from the owner and employees’. Weblinkhosting.com’s latest circulation suggests progress has been made with the objective and, “the newly adopted orphan which will live in the web hosting data center will be a male. His name has yet to be determined.”
You want something even stranger?
The company also originally suggested their intention to make the adopted child their official logo.
I’d love to see how the public feels about this one. I’ll be sure to touch on this subject a little deeper on next week’s edition of the Web Hosting Show podcast as well.
