Dice Holdings Trading down on Disappointing Earnings

Dice Holdings, the company that now owns Slashdot and runs specialty job boards, seems to have hit a rough patch. An article from earlier this month reports Dice Holdings is trading down by 4.1% due to disappointing earnings. Yahoo's stock charts don't make it look like the situation is too bad, but look to Dice's CEO for guidance and you'll be surprised. Turns out Scott Melland is feeling bearish and recently sold over $500,000 in Dice stock. Here is the transcript of the earnings call, in which they unleash the bad news about Dice earnings.

Personally, I recommend they plaster Slashdot with more obnoxious banner ads .

Eh, They will be the ultimate death of it. But, I think the real death of the site happened when they didn't modernize slashcode in the way that pipedot has. Although, I understand its vastly easier to start from scratch with a small userbase, than it is to transition from the slashdot userbase. Trolls used to be cute, and the whole anonymous posting culture is very cool, but they lost a lot of readership by allowing the obvious offensive trolls through.
