WePay Drops 600lbs of ice in front of PayPal Conference
What a funny way to grab a ton of free press.They must have planned this for some time given the logistics involved and the time it takes to freeze quantity of water that size and get a nice and clear chunk.My own paypal saga isn't over yet, though there have been some surprising developments.I sincerely hope that someone will one of these days replace paypal with a better way of doing peer-to-peer payments, but online fraud being what it is the question is if it actually can be done without in the long run incurring the same kind of penalties that paypal use has now.After all, when you're just starting out with a payment service most or even all of your transactions are legitimate. But once the service gets more popular there will be an inevitable influx of scammers, whitewashers, identity thieves,phishers and other less desirable elements. To get rid of the one without hurting the other is a very difficult problem.
