News Flash - Calc.org Hijacked

[Vlad]

The calculator website Calc.org has been hijacked. It is now a mirror for Super Soaker Central for some reason. Sorry if this news article is a bit unrealated; I wanted to end the news drought.

Via Ticalc.org.

Yeah. Saw this stuff yesterday. It's around the community.

It's sad, as Ben Trettel, the person who was facilitating the calc.org revival, ditched his site. Super Soaker Central is also owned by Trettel.

Let's see what Adam thinks of this.

I've noticed this for quite some time. It's suprising to see how long it took http://www.ticalc.org to post this. The article at http://www.ticalc.org was still funny, but what happenned to http://www.calc.org is sad.

Back on topic, I wonder if something like this will ever happen to ticalc.org. It's depressing that something like this happened to calc.org, and I'm wishing I was in the calculator community early enough to see calc.org at its prime.
