John Edward's latest business venture

It looks like John Edward's latest venture is similiar to Sylvia Browne's SpiritNow website.

In the fall, the site will launch online interactive readings, where users can receive personal readings via webcam.

For supposed spiritual types, they sure are into new business ventures, aren't they?

Speaking of which, Browne now has this in small print at the bottom of her home page: "Please note Sylvia and Sylvia Browne Corp. are no longer affiliated with SpiritNow.com." Which is what prompted me to go over there the other day and is where I found her silly swine flu statements (another thread).

ETA: And more business ventures - Browne now has listed on her web site an invitation to sell your jewelry to some guy named Jack in Florida for top dollar. http://sylvia.org/home/cash_for_jewelry.cfm

So did SpiritNow fail, or did they fire Sylvia? In either case, insert obligatory "guess she didn't see THAT coming" joke here.

The website keeps calling him "John Edwards", they aren't psychic. Those suckers can't even spell.

That's in poor taste even for her.
