After all the give and take and the confusion around what goes and what is left behind, the deal between Performancing and PayPerPost has been called off.
After much discussion, we’ve decided that the deal proposed by PayPerPost just isnt right for us or our community. It’s regrettable that we should part ways as I still feel that Dan and Ted are stand up guys breaking new ground, but in the end, the deal was just not right for them or us.
The blogging software will continued to be called ScribeFire. Catch more details on Performancing site.
