Rumour: Smith & Tinker to do Web Games?

In September of 2007 Shadowrun developer FASA Studio's shut down, about 50% of the staff was absorbed into Microsoft Game's Studios. A few months later a company called Smith & Tinker was founded by the original founder of FASA corporation. Many see Smith & Tinker as the successor to FASA Studios. Around the time of founding, S&T licensed out FASA Studio's old IP's, they did not reveal their intentions with them.

Today Segafanclub decided to pay S&T's Job site a visit, until recently the page was left completely empty. Today when segafanclub checked however segafanclub saw they were indeed hiring, but not for game developers, instead all the job listing's were for web based development.
