Google’s YouTube Acquisition Kills uTube

products_CT-UTUBE.jpg

While everyone’s fawning all over Google’s purchase of YouTube, the poor guys over at pipe and tube equipment company Universal Tube whose web address is utube.com wish the party would end because, apparently, several million people can’t tell the difference between YouTube and Utube causing the company’s president Ralph Girkins to tell CNN, “It’s killing us.” Indeed it is. The site is currently available. Hey Google, help a little guy out. Send a spare server or three over to these guys so your $1.6 billion party doesn’t put this guy out of business.
