“beijing-based start up”???
with a godaddy registered domain name using their proprietary domains-by-proxy service?
this saga gets stranger by the story.

I had a mojiti with my dinner last night. Delicious, but the mint has to be freshly-crushed and put in before the rum.

Part of the agreement involved Mojiti disclosing how much lead their web platform contained.
Will they call it Huhiti or Mojilu?

The interesting thing about this acquisition to me is that I spoke with someone on the News Corp side a couple of weeks ago about Hulu, and he spent a lot of time talking about how impressive NBC’s video technology was, and how much their tech expertise was contributing to the joint venture.
Odd.
