The Return Of Furniture.com

from the what's-next?--Pets.com? dept

Dead dot coms? Well, this is turning into the night of the living dead, because more and more dot coms are coming back to life. Last week we mentioned how Garageband.com was coming back and now we find out that Furniture.com is coming back to life, albeit with a slightly different business model. This time they're partnering with a real brick-and-mortar furniture store and passing off the sales to them. Hopefully, they've also gotten rid of some of the other things that made Furniture.com famous - like having employees pretending to be busy on the phone taking orders, whenever investors were visiting.
