Ask Jeeves is looking for a broader audience, and is going to axe Jeeves to do it. The search engine will need a new name, of course.
I guess the concept of job security can finally be laid to rest once and for all. I mean, if you have a site called “Ask Jeeves”and you are Jeeves, you figure you are pretty set in the job department. Not so, my innocent friends. Barry Diller shelled out $1.85 BILLION in May 2005 for the search site, but has decided to give Jeeves the boot. The reason, people were confused. I guess we don’t know what pasty, fat butlers are. (They actually tried a Jeeves makeover to slim him down and tan him - hoot!)
