UPDATE:
The other Andrew Fitzsimon he has now resolved to withdraw from all p2p/multilevel marketing activities indefinitely.
The temporary site has been replaced with a disambiguation page.
Outdated Post
It seems someone with my name, also packing an aussie accent, living close to where I grew up is preying on the gullible and the greedy masses via the usual lame online marketing scam frameworks.
So to react, I made www.AndrewFitzsimon.com in an attempt to claw back my integrity and also google-bash them into an honest, less pathetic living.
Anyone else ever have birth name brand-equity issues?
There’s not many Andrew (Andy) Fitzsimon’s out there so I have to draw the line when someone at an international conference confuses me with a potential con artist.
It might help if you stood up….
I have to share a planet with the Google/Mozilla guy, and keep getting job offers for him… I am tempted to take someone up on the offer to see whether they realise I don’t have a degree in software engineering (yet)…
Ok, ok. But where’s the check you promessed me? :-p
I really feel for all the John Citizens out there.
Oh, and the link to Twitter on andrewfitzsimon.com is broken.
thanks, link is fixed.
Its unfortunate that there are so few people with my name.
I feel like submitting job applications and centrelink forms on behalf of this other guy…
Nobody with my name gets to be a dropkick publicly and gets away with it.
Andy, you had some great posts on your previous blog about Inkscape and I have been linking to them, but they are not broken links. What happened to your old content my friend?
