I constantly get these random IM's, either from people checking aimchecker.com (not my site, but in my sig) or just from people asking me if I'm really the WF owner or Jon from aojon.com (duh!). Anyhow, instead of being an asshole as usual to them, I decided to have some fun and fuck with one of them by telling him I owned Facebook.com and lots of other lies. Yeah, I know, I really need to get out more, but it was just toooo easy to not do!

rkaps91 (9:03:19 PM): hey this is gnna seem rly rly sketchy but i wnna let u no ur the most viewed person on aimchecker.com...r u famous or something haha
ao jon (9:04:27 PM): Yeah I know..
ao jon (9:04:35 PM): And yes, I am famous unfortunately.
rkaps91 (9:04:53 PM): ooo...who are you then
ao jon (9:05:04 PM): Just a guy.
rkaps91 (9:05:08 PM): is it too personal for me to ask that
ao jon (9:05:10 PM): How did you find aimchecker?
rkaps91 (9:06:00 PM): i used it to check my friend cuz i thought he was being an ass and blocked me and the 1st thing i saw was aojon is the most viewed person
ao jon (9:06:33 PM): I'm famous because I own some big websites, and I have a big potty mouth. Especially at industry related conferences.
ao jon (9:06:45 PM): And now because of that stupid site.
rkaps91 (9:07:01 PM): ohh...haha I'm sorry for the disturbance
rkaps91 (9:07:09 PM): I just was really intersted
ao jon (9:07:20 PM): Nah it's okay.
ao jon (9:07:30 PM): I find it amusing.
rkaps91 (9:07:33 PM): which websites do you own
rkaps91 (9:07:54 PM): do you ever think about changing your name
rkaps91 (9:08:02 PM): I mean aim name
ao jon (9:08:11 PM): Changing my name from Jon to... Douche?
ao jon (9:08:13 PM): All the time.
ao jon (9:08:27 PM): No, I've had this AIM for more than 10 years.
rkaps91 (9:08:32 PM): ohh
ao jon (9:08:34 PM): I also own Super Affiliate Marketing Blog
ao jon (9:08:38 PM): So that would suck.
rkaps91 (9:09:00 PM): are there any websites I would know of
ao jon (9:09:06 PM): That depends..
ao jon (9:09:10 PM): Are you a kid?
rkaps91 (9:09:13 PM): no
rkaps91 (9:09:20 PM): 18
ao jon (9:09:24 PM): That's a kid.
rkaps91 (9:09:36 PM): not by law
ao jon (9:09:45 PM): Since when does the law count?
rkaps91 (9:09:49 PM): I'm into business though
ao jon (9:10:07 PM): I own a media site called WickedFire.com
ao jon (9:10:34 PM): Facebook.com
rkaps91 (9:10:45 PM): do you really own Facebook | Welcome to Facebook!
ao jon (9:10:49 PM): Yeah!
ao jon (9:10:55 PM): Heard of it?
rkaps91 (9:11:00 PM): lol
ao jon (9:11:01 PM): Heh
ao jon (9:11:04 PM): I know you have.
rkaps91 (9:11:09 PM): that must be a joke
ao jon (9:11:10 PM): Everyone has.. even my grandparents.
rkaps91 (9:11:23 PM): do you honestly own that
ao jon (9:11:23 PM): And they don't even know what the internet is.
ao jon (9:11:26 PM): Yes!
rkaps91 (9:11:33 PM): Wow!
rkaps91 (9:11:45 PM): good for you
ao jon (9:11:45 PM): There's nothing to wow about honestly..
ao jon (9:11:53 PM): I don't actually have to do anything anymore.
ao jon (9:11:58 PM): Just sit there and take credit for it.
 


rkaps91 (9:12:04 PM): I am ranked 347 in that bracket for ncaa
ao jon (9:12:12 PM): Sucks for you!
rkaps91 (9:12:27 PM): haha it's pretty good considering the amount of people
ao jon (9:12:37 PM): Yeah well, it will just be even tougher next year.
rkaps91 (9:12:51 PM): Why?
ao jon (9:12:58 PM): Because more people will be involved.
ao jon (9:13:53 PM): Maybe after we finish our acquisition of Ebaumsworld the site will be a lot more entertaining and rich media filled.
ao jon (9:14:20 PM): How active are you? Meaning.. how many times a week or day do you log in?
rkaps91 (9:14:43 PM): Very active
ao jon (9:14:55 PM): Are you in HS or college?
rkaps91 (9:14:58 PM): I would say three to ten a day
ao jon (9:15:16 PM): That's more than avg.
rkaps91 (9:15:41 PM): Still in high-school unfortunately...and by the way that was my sister's boyfriend in the beginning
rkaps91 (9:15:43 PM): he is 18
ao jon (9:15:43 PM): Are you also a Myspace user?
rkaps91 (9:15:49 PM): I am 16
rkaps91 (9:16:08 PM): I used to use myspace
rkaps91 (9:16:20 PM): honestly if you ever need help with websites or anything ahha
rkaps91 (9:16:28 PM): I'm good with computers
ao jon (9:16:45 PM): I'm sure.. but we'd go to jail for subbing out work to an underage kid.
ao jon (9:16:52 PM): Or get fined.
rkaps91 (9:16:54 PM): I have papers
rkaps91 (9:17:03 PM): From the government
rkaps91 (9:17:05 PM): to let me work
rkaps91 (9:17:19 PM): I'm actually in 2 internships right now and a job
ao jon (9:17:45 PM): Pretend I don't own FB. How would you compare us to Myspace, in a better or worse comparison?
rkaps91 (9:17:51 PM): engineering internships
rkaps91 (9:17:54 PM): Much better
rkaps91 (9:18:02 PM): less stalkerish
ao jon (9:18:05 PM): Ha!
rkaps91 (9:18:09 PM): more protected and trustrworthy
ao jon (9:18:21 PM): Let's hope those evil stalkers stay on Myspace and not here.
rkaps91 (9:18:26 PM): yup
rkaps91 (9:18:41 PM): Do you have a facebook account?
ao jon (9:18:41 PM): Would you say that our site lacks sharing media like videos, and songs?
rkaps91 (9:18:46 PM): Not at all
ao jon (9:18:52 PM): I do, but that's super private.
rkaps91 (9:18:55 PM): I like it as a community based site
rkaps91 (9:19:03 PM): how you can
ao jon (9:19:05 PM): We aren't media whores like Tom.
rkaps91 (9:19:09 PM): put songs or videos up if you want
rkaps91 (9:19:14 PM): Yea exactly
rkaps91 (9:19:27 PM): It's like a quicker version of email
rkaps91 (9:19:40 PM): except more public and less dull
ao jon (9:19:40 PM): But Tom hasn't "worked" at Myspace for years anyhow, he's like the Caveman character for Geico.
ao jon (9:19:51 PM): Just there for show.
rkaps91 (9:19:54 PM): oo
rkaps91 (9:20:05 PM): That's interesting
ao jon (9:20:19 PM): It was a clever marketing ploy on their end.
rkaps91 (9:20:25 PM): Very good
rkaps91 (9:20:37 PM): but it's kind of weird and stalker too
ao jon (9:20:43 PM): Yes.
ao jon (9:21:17 PM): We used to be much stricter with our contacting other members.. but it seemed that's what our focus groups came up with to change and lax it out a bit.
ao jon (9:21:50 PM): So since we've purchased Ebaumsworld, we hope to add a lot more media, but in a more conservative sense.
rkaps91 (9:22:04 PM): I love ebaumsworld...at least when I was younger
 
ao jon (9:22:45 PM): There are a bunch of media sites included in the deal, but I figured you'd recognize that name the most.
ao jon (9:23:21 PM): Some others include Kontraband, College Humor, Friendster Media, etc.
rkaps91 (9:23:33 PM): Does any of your companies need young adult representatives to share their opinions...
ao jon (9:23:39 PM): I think WSJ will drop the news later this week on it.
ao jon (9:24:15 PM): We do market research panels with HS and college age kids for feedback and ideas.
rkaps91 (9:24:44 PM): As a whole though?...like you survey many kids
ao jon (9:24:57 PM): They are generally in a group.
ao jon (9:25:15 PM): Our market research firm conducts them for us.
ao jon (9:26:04 PM): Usually we'll pick one or two people per 1000 or so, fly them out to one of our offices, give them $5k, and let them tell us all of the bad and good about FB and how to make it better.
ao jon (9:26:42 PM): Sure beats getting some weird teddy bear as a prize.
ao jon (9:26:56 PM): Woo, and they get a tshirt too! Can't forget that!
rkaps91 (9:27:27 PM): really
ao jon (9:27:31 PM): Do you use Wikipedia?
rkaps91 (9:27:39 PM): Haha
rkaps91 (9:27:40 PM): I am now
rkaps91 (9:27:43 PM): for school
ao jon (9:28:12 PM): Does your school accept it as a valid source of research information, or are they against it?
rkaps91 (9:28:15 PM): I would be extremely interested in helping out giving Facebook any suggestions
rkaps91 (9:28:53 PM): My school does accept it but we can't use it as a primary source
ao jon (9:28:59 PM): Lame.
rkaps91 (9:29:21 PM): I personally love it because it's so accessible
rkaps91 (9:29:27 PM): and easy to find information
ao jon (9:29:31 PM): We're almost done acquiring Wikipedia too. Should help with our new planned search engine.
ao jon (9:30:00 PM): Which search engine do you feel has the best, and most accurate/relevant information?
rkaps91 (9:30:15 PM): google
ao jon (9:30:20 PM): Loser!
rkaps91 (9:30:23 PM): Haha
rkaps91 (9:30:27 PM): I'm sorry
ao jon (9:30:33 PM): Don't be sorry.. you're a loser.
rkaps91 (9:30:40 PM): I havn't been to exposed to others
ao jon (9:30:48 PM): Bullshit!
rkaps91 (9:30:49 PM): google mahy not be accurate
rkaps91 (9:30:50 PM): may*
rkaps91 (9:30:54 PM): but I know it is fast
ao jon (9:31:02 PM): MSN.com and Yahoo.com are WAY better.
rkaps91 (9:31:19 PM): I would use others too I'm sure there are much better but I just use whatever
rkaps91 (9:31:24 PM): Yeah yahoo is really good
ao jon (9:31:31 PM): Would you like a sneak peak at our beta engine?
rkaps91 (9:31:41 PM): I have them for email and use it every so often for research
rkaps91 (9:31:43 PM): Sure!
rkaps91 (9:31:58 PM): Which engine
ao jon (9:32:02 PM): It's not using the Wikipedia algorithm results just yet.. but it's very hush hush.
rkaps91 (9:32:10 PM): ok
ao jon (9:32:15 PM): younanimous - The social search engine
ao jon (9:32:21 PM): Tell me what you think.
ao jon (9:32:26 PM): Give me good and bad feedback.
rkaps91 (9:32:54 PM): Ok can you wait two minutes I'll research so different things
ao jon (9:33:03 PM): Sure!
 
rkaps91 (9:33:26 PM): The first thing I notice so far
rkaps91 (9:33:30 PM): is that the interface is great
rkaps91 (9:33:47 PM): Easy, accessible, and not too busy
rkaps91 (9:34:25 PM): I know its beta so it will be fixed but, search results take very very long to show up
rkaps91 (9:34:30 PM): mine havn't even responded yet
ao jon (9:35:25 PM): What terms?
ao jon (9:35:32 PM): Better not be porn..
rkaps91 (9:35:34 PM): I typed in facebook
rkaps91 (9:36:19 PM): One suggestion I have to attract more users...is to not only advertise the site obviously...but once it is recognized, maybe shorten the url...I wouldn't mind if it is a great search engine...but people these days are honestly way to lazy to type in a longer url than google
rkaps91 (9:36:57 PM): If thats too hard to get another domain...just advertising then
ao jon (9:37:04 PM): It's not being advertised or promoted really.
ao jon (9:37:12 PM): Just looking for feedback at the moment.
rkaps91 (9:37:18 PM): I'm sure you know the best obviously...your the creator of facebook
ao jon (9:37:20 PM): It's about 2 weeks old.. maybe less?
ao jon (9:37:32 PM): I'm ONE of the creators.
rkaps91 (9:37:33 PM): you're
ao jon (9:37:40 PM): It was my concept/idea.
rkaps91 (9:37:44 PM): Yea but in my books thats still crazy
rkaps91 (9:37:56 PM): I love the interface though
ao jon (9:38:12 PM): Hold on a sec kid.
rkaps91 (9:38:15 PM): alright
rkaps91 (9:43:26 PM): I don't want be persistent at all.. but if you ever need someone to fly down for feedback I'm really interested...I don't know how you choose but I think it would be a great opportunity
rkaps91 (9:44:02 PM): I'm not sure how many people ask you that same question I'm sure a lot though
ao jon (9:49:09 PM): People I went to HS with ask me that too.
ao jon (9:50:27 PM): When Yahoo finally buys us out this Summer, I will take my $955M and never deal with IM's or websites again.
rkaps91 (9:50:41 PM): Haha...sounds like a great deal
ao jon (9:51:17 PM): But I will visit my old elementry school teachers first and show them that you can still fail bible classes and make more money than God.
rkaps91 (9:51:27 PM): Haha
rkaps91 (9:51:50 PM): I would too
ao jon (9:51:58 PM): I have to run.
ao jon (9:52:00 PM): See ya.
rkaps91 (9:52:04 PM): Bye
ao jon (9:52:06 PM): Thanks for the feedback..
ao jon (9:52:16 PM): You saved us $5k and a plane ticket!
rkaps91 (9:52:19 PM): no problem
rkaps91 (9:52:26 PM): I'll still take that
