WUPHF: Next Social Network
The service purportedly sends a message to friends on all their channels, Facebook, chat, SMS and Twitter. It even prints out a ‘wuphf’ (pronounced “woof,” the sitcom’s version of a ‘tweet’) on the nearest printer. Well it turns out WUPHF.com is real. Sort of.
The website exists, and you can even attempt to sign up for the service and get sent a wuphf. I tried to do so to see how far the charade would actually go. Disappointingly, I wasn’t able to get a wuphf sent to my Twitter account or mobile phone. For my Facebook account, the website gave me a pop-up message: “FACEBOOK: WUPHF is unable to post due to lame Facebook privacy policy.” Touche. I did get an email from “Ryan Howard” at ry@wuphf.com, saying I had been signed up for the service, however.
The rest of the website features goodies like the “About” page, with a message to potential investors that name-checks successful technology companies like Google and Microsoft.
Have you seen the film The Social Network? Well this site is every bit as good as that movie. Not only is this company going to earn you crazy money, I guarantee it, it will also give you the opportunity to get on the ground floor of something big! Looking back, don’t you wish you bought Google stock back in 2002? Don’t you regret not buying Microsoft bonds back in the early 90s? Now’s your chance to right all the wrongs of your past – invest in WUPHF today.
There’s also a store where you can actually buy a WUPHF t-shirt (as seen on TV!) for $25. And a “Download” section has an amusingly anachronistic WUPHF fax cover sheet. And if all that doesn’t convince investors to pull out their checkbooks, see WUPHF’s rockin’ business plan.
