I’ve blogged in the past about DQ, and for those who were wondering why I was blogging about Dairy Queen, try and shift each of the letters by one; it’s actually about Coop Rankings!

I don’t really remember why I wanted to anonymously blog about CR. I’ve put my real name all over to CR but I guess I didn’t want anyone to link it back to my main blog. Well now with Facebook being the intermediary, I can’t hide anything anymore. But then, I haven’t been blogging about CR because there hasn’t been any new news. It’s been chugging along, being used by students looking for coop jobs even without much input from me.

But now there is news. In fact, it’s big news – big enough that we got on TechCrunch (although for some reason they thought we were Coop.com and not Coop Rankings). Earlier this year, I was contacted by the people behind InternSHARE who also built a site to rate internships/coops and we started talks into merging the two sites. They had better integration with the rest of the web (Google, Facebook, Wikipedia, etc) but we had more content submitted by users. It’s a good match, particularly because working on Coop Rankings has not been my primary priority for awhile.

On Friday evening, we finally did all the integration work and now Coop Rankings is a part of InternSHARE!
