Our good friend and fellow Wallingford resident Dan Shapiro popped up in the news recently on the widely read TechCrunch blog. Or, at least his company, Ontela did, amidst rumors that they’re in a $60 million deal to buy Photobucket from News Corp’s MySpace.
TechCrunch’s mercurial Michael Arrington huffed that Ontela has declined to comment, instead “sending us to voicemail”.
We’re sure it wasn’t personal. Dan was probably just out playing with his one year old twins at the McDonald School playground.
