Not sure if we've met over the years... I'm in Toronto as well.

My little history - I helped start a network of sites called MyDesktop back in the mid 90's (when I was 14) and we eventually sold to Internet.com in the later 90's. I got some VC money from there, and started another company some months before the big internet stock crash.. We were very close to signing a national syndication deal with the people who do Dear Abby and Garfield, but because of the internet crash that was the end of the deal.. Confidence was low. I decided to give back the remaining VC money, probably unheard of I guess.

I dabbled in adult in 1996 with Click Cash and Click Bucks, but concentrated on my mainstream stuff mostly. Sometime in 2001 I had an epiphany, and realized reviewing porn sites was an easier sell, since you didn't have to sell advertising etc. So I started http://www.adultsitesurfer.com and have done pretty good with that. We have several websites now, I'll send over more information in e-mail.,

When you're back in Toronto, let's hit dinner and talk. I've been trying to make it a priority this summer to meet everyone I can from Toronto, since we've been hermit-crab-like over the years. I'll send you an e-mail now and hopefully we can make it happen.

Nice to meet you.
