ASABAILEY/Ogilvy hijack

ogilvymather.JPGWith a mighty chorus you tipped in about viral ad organization ASABAILEY and how they've swooped in and snagged Ogilvy London's URL out from underneath it for the large sum of roughly 7 bucks. Well, when we say "you", we in fact mean ASABAILEY itself, and one other guy, who knows who he is.

Outrageous! Well, it was outrageous when pono sites did it in 1999, ye olde URL squat is a pretty well-worn territory by now, however ASABAILEY seems to be doing a good job of getting ad sites to make a fuss about it.

More about the ASABAILEY/Ogilvy hijack on the links below. As far as we know these are in fact real sites that have been around for a bit and are not run by ASABAILEY, but discovering otherwise would not shock us.
