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. |
Thanks for taking the time. I don't know if we have met or not. One of my major downfalls other than my looks is the fact that I am the worst person when it comes to names. Someone could tell me their name and before it has a chance to go in one ear I've already forgot it. It's a lousy and embarrassing habit that makes people think I'm pretentious for not remembering their name when it's not the case.
Your history is pretty amazing and an interesting story. I most certainly would like to get together for dinner. I was actually kind of hoping to see what became of this thread and see if it would be good to get a bunch of people together to talk informally. Especially people that hate each other. That makes for good entertainment. You are certainly someone that would get an invite. Let's touch base and see if we can get together sometime in the next few weeks. Haven't gotten to my emails yet but I will. If for some reason you don't get a response by the end of the night then you can assume that it hit the spam filters and I never got it.
