Go to www.introducingmonday.co.uk for a great illustration fo how the internet can humble even the most serious of “brands”.

When PWC Consulting changed their name to Monday, they registered every name with anything vaguely related to their new Monday “brand”, as large corporates are wont to do. This included www.introducingmonday.com , but unfortunately they forgot about www.introducingmonday.co.uk
