DropSend’s “For Sale” Announcement & Curious Chatter
Last evening, DropSend announced that it was For Sale. Ok, fair enough. But then a few hours later, it blogged about already receiving several emails expressing interest, including "…one from Geoffrey Arrone (from Flock)".
This strikes me as a bad move. If in fact there is interest being expressed via email, those persons communicating with DropSend probably had an expectation of confidentiality. Since I didn’t see any of those messages (why would I have??), I can only speculate about how I would react in a similar situation.
I left a similar comment for Ryan Carson on his blog. As I said there, I wish him well, but I suggested he reconsider the public discussion of what should be – at this point at least – confidential business discussions.
Ryan has since posted about getting picked up by TechCrunch, where Mike is also questioning the Flock disclosure. It sure looks like Ryan is seeking publicity above substance here.
This may backfire on Ryan.
