Yesterday I pointed out that CBS Interactive had "shut down" startrek.com and "eliminated" (their words, not mine) the staff working on the site. Today there's no mention of the article I quoted yesterday. Instead, I found this:
"CBS Interactive, which oversees StarTrek.com, is reorganizing the way it does business to align the division's workforce with its new vision that focuses on building communities online.
CBS Interactive remains absolutely committed to StarTrek.com and to growing the site along with its users by directly tapping into and utilizing the passionate fan base that has supported the site.
It has been your support and contributions to the lore of Star Trek that are what make StarTrek.com a vibrant place to be. To that end, we encourage you to keep the conversation alive and flowing using our message boards."
If they feel that way, then why did the do what they did over the weekend? Obviously the team hasn't done a bad job or anything, given that the site is updated with fresh info every day and sees thousands of visitors on a daily basis. This boggles me...
