Will WU Be Freed From The Tyranny?
« on: August 30, 2015, 06:55:38 PM »
Buzz has it that their evil overlord is up for sale by the investor/holding company.

If and when it happens, will WU and Intellicast be sold down the river also or set free?

Maybe when/if that day does come then WU can get their webpage stickers working again.

Funny how after I posted that comment they started working again for me too. Like the one in my sig., has been N/A for a week or so. Even on WU's site most of their widget/stickers were N/A with no data but my PWS's data was arriving there.

LOL, the "Team Weather Stickers" (Game Day Weather) haven't worked for several months.

Why don't you all make your own banners and/or stickers? It's easy and they work very well. Can't remember a time when the failed to work reliably. Plus, you can customize them any way you want.

The evil overlord just cut Al Roker's morning show, because it is too expensive to produce using NBC's facilities in New York.  That speaks volumes about their financial situation.....

Only hoping, I can't think of a poorer ownership of weather related business than NBC Universal and its consortium of groupies.
