Dan,

As I invest in my new ad network. I'm constantly on the look out for funding. Woot. I'm willing to make you an offer to settle up on joab. 800 in the next 2 weeks will settle it all up.

And you get to keep the future revenue on a month to month basis. Hit me up and let me know if your interested. Again I'm doing this to try and fund a heavy bit of advertising im going to be doing around the 1st of july.

David

Dan,

Life is filled with business decisions some harder than others. This one was a hard one but came from my gut feeling. Having wanted to bring closure with Joab and I felt like it was time to go in another direction.I will be refunding your deposit,or initial payment and go another direction.

I just felt at this time that things werent going in the direction I had hoped. Not as far as content just with the details of getting this closed out. So you will receive your payment refund within 72hours. Please instead of voicing your emotions, or whatever to the public blogosphere feel free to voice them to me. Although I understand with the nature of this site and my high profile it will be easier to due otherwise. For all parties involved I would hope we didn't go this route.

Again, this was a difficult business decision. Please feel free to send me your payment details, where you want me to send your refund.

Sincerely, David

Poet 243: 72 hours. or by Friday AM Bank Opening The 500 plus wire transfer fee will be in your account
aim zan: and the content i wrote, i own the rights to that.
Poet 243: that's fine

david@problogging.com: Please send over your paypal address as I am out of the area to do a wire transfer.

dan@bostonwebproperties.com: I don't use paypal. They're also still using my content.

blogmediasales@gmail.com:Well, I cant do a wire transfer as I'm out of state. Will be in California there are Wamu's there. Is that sufficient. Otherwise check will do. If check is the preferred method send your mailing address.
Once payment is made, and I feel like you arent spreading your bs I will ask them if they want to take down the content. I'm going to leave it up to them. It's merely a request. Not a given. It's not my site. I'm not the boss.
David Krug

dan@bostonwebproperties.com: Here you are playing more games and breaking more of your word. You made the deal to sell the site to them 2 days before you even told me you wanted to refund me. It may not be your site anymore, but it *is* my content, and I am the boss of it. There is no conditional, if this and if that. They'll stop using my content, or there will be issues, but I guess that's not your problem anymore, I'll take it up with them. Again, you said you would pay me back by wire transfer by Friday AM, I would appreciate it if for once you stuck to our original agreement and wired me the funds by tomorrow morning. thanks -Dan

blogmediasales@gmail.com: Listen,
I'm not going to put up with more of your threats, and mistruths dude. I was working on selling the site a month before I sent you that email saying it was over.
I owned the site and the content. If you want to get into a nasty brutal battle fine. I will do my best dillegence to refund you via wire when I get to San Fran. There are no Wamu's in my state. Also you have my wire info. I dont have yours. My bank doesnt store that information.
thanks - David

dan@bostonwebproperties.com: I've not made one threat, or spoken one un-true word. The documents I have reflect only the truth:
http://danzarrella.com/joab_aim_log.php
You have no position to claim you owned the content I wrote, which is still being used. If the contract you made with bloggy transfers the rights to that, well you didn't have those rights to sell in the first place. But again, thats not really your problem, so I'll take that up with bloggy.
You set the friday AM deadline for yourself, please stick to it? If you are planning to send my refund by then, I will send my info.

liberalcowboy@gmail.com: And you have no rights to any of the content on the JOAB site or domain.
Show me an agreement where you have that. And I will take it down.

dan@bostonwebproperties.com: I wrote the content and never transfered rights to you, be default I hold the exclusive rights to any content I create.

liberalcowboy@gmail.com: The content was written on my site, my domain and on my server. Therefore I own the content. Please do not contact me Re: Content again. Contact the new owner please.
Please send your wire info over for your refund. I will initiate it as soon as I can get to a Wamu before noon PST. I will scan and fax the form so you can see i did it. Also it should be in your account on Friday.
