For those who don't remember Donda, it was Kanye West's media company, born from a fever dream, set out to change the world with the help of "doctors, lawyers, teachers, tech guys, app guys, and nutritionists". http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/appsblog/2012/jan/06/kanye-west-twitter-apps-donda http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/appsblog/2012/jan/06/ka...

I'm confused

  Nothing to be confused about. Kanye's mouth wrote a big check they obviously can't cash. Can't wait to see the other disruptive things that are sure to come out of Donda, maybe next they will setup a Big Cartel store and tell us its the new e-commerce.

Look at their timeline they claim its just a beta, but its basically a whois with too much type which hinders usability.

My favorite part is a wrapper div in the HTML that has the id "avail_rapper".

All signs here point to this being a huge prank. The site was registered 2 days ago. Dondamedia.com was registered yesterday. Plus the gmail they use doesn't match up with the e-mail kanye tweeted during his rant (DONDAMEDIA@GMAIL.COM vs contactDONDA@gmail.com ).
