Here's a story of a small businessman with grand plans that motivated him to do "whatever it takes" to succeed. Unfortunately for him, that involved hiring a felon to hold a man at gunpoint in a home invasion to convince the victim to sign over a domain name. No, really. The entrepreneur founded a WorldStar wanna-be website and social media accounts focused on Iowa State University, of all things, and wanted a domain echoing his slogan for the sites. The guy who had it didn't want to give it up, then wanted more money for it than the entrepreneur was willing to pay. So, home invasion, and that didn't go well for the gunman, who ended up getting shot in the chest with his own gun and arrested. He and the entrepreneur are heading for long stretches in jail, all for a domain name. Canny business strategy. (Washington Post)
