NYTimes article about Rock Band contained the following gem when describing how they kept their online “Rock Band Network” project a secret:
“Harmonix went to great lengths to keep its development secret, including giving it the unofficial in-house code name Rock Band: Nickelback, on the theory that the name of the quintessentially generic modern rock group would be enough to deflect all curiosity.”
hey Hunter,
Hows everything going? I was wondering if you would be willing to sell the domain name staycation.com?
P.S. I'm jealous you work at Google. They won't call me back for an interview =(
Anyways, you can contact me at simon.wong51@gmail.com
Thanks!
Hi Simon – feel free to make me an offer
