For those who do not know, Popcap developed the games Alchemy and Bejeweled, which are very popular at the MSN Gaming Zone.
I tried to access popcap.com as usual on Friday and Saturday to play their other games, but the url could not be found.
I did a Google search on “popcap” and found this site http://www.sexyactioncool.com/ , but it also could not accessed. Google’s cached copy contains the following:
In this January 8, 2001 TIME article, popcap was mentioned as already being profitable.
But despite this positive report, it looks like it has gone the way of other failed dot-coms. Does anyone know what the real story is?
