I never met him but remember his posts. Very young, looks like he was sick for awhile and based on the donations either heart or diabetes or combo thereof. Very sad to see someone pass at such a young age. May you rest in peace, Todd.

An industry pioneer, and good and generous family man has passed - my deepest condolences to Todd's family and friends...
A brief bio:
Way too young - RIP STK...Mr. Ostrer has been an entrepreneur virtually all of his life and exclusively on the Internet since commerce on the internet started. He is considered by many to be a pioneer in the industry. He served in the Army from 1986 to 1989.
Once out of the military he was briefly a forest firefighter in the Pacific Northwest Region of the United States. He has always been into computers since the first PC and turned his skills and knowledge to the Internet and Online Services to make his living, particularly in the Adult Online Services Industry and retail sales.
From 1990 to 1994, Mr. Ostrer started the company Rose City Online, Inc. Originally a BBS that served millions of adult pictures to a paid membership consumer base and eventually turned into one of the first ISP's in the Portland, Oregon Metropolitan area. He also had one of the largest Internet retail stores for adult cd's with "xxxcd.com" doing retail sales of adult cd's and shipping them all over the world.
From 1994 to 1997, Mr. Ostrer was one of the first to start Internet/Web based Adult Online Services with "Adults.com" among many others. He was also one of the first to automate his fee based adult online services to consumer's with automatic signup, real-time online credit card charging and password access.
From 1997, Mr. Ostrer helped start VTR, Inc. and ventured heavy into retail sales of adult sex toys on the World Wide Web with "sextoyworld.com" and "safesexmall.com". He has setup many retail stores on the net and runs several other stores for other companies. He has extensive knowledge of shopping cart software, merchant accounts and marketing strategies for use on the Internet.
From 1999, Mr. Ostrer started "WebInc.com", providing website development and original artwork to mainstream and adult business professionals. His vision is to provide a "One-Stop Shopping" website where business to business (B2B) professionals can find anything and everything they need to start, maintain, expand or support their online ventures, services and retail stores.

R.I.P Sad news
Comment

My heart aches. It fully aches. As many of you know, I used to be Sarah_Webinc. Todd, purely and simply, gave me my break in this industry. He was my boss for over four years but really he was a friend and a mentor.
When my husband died, Todd was my guardian angel.
I met my best friend because Todd sent me to my first industry show.
After I left Webinc, Todd followed my career as if he was my personal cheerleader. He is right there in the thread I made last month about joining Fleshlight. As ever he was bigging me up and going out of his way to make me feel good about myself.
My heart goes out to his wife and his beautiful kids.
I am forever going to miss my mentor.
Thank you Todd.Last edited by Sarah_Jayne; 10-19-2011, 08:26 AM.Comment

I'm truly speechless...
Todd was such a great guy. In an industry full of smoke, mirrors and bullshit, he was one of the very rare straight shooter/"what you see is what you get" type of guys.
I remember about once a year receiving one of his packages in the mail.
We also had a great dinner at the Bellagio several years ago just shooting the shit about the biz, politics, family, etc. We must have sat there chatting for 3 hours and could have easily chatted for 3 more.
I can honestly say I'm an STK fanboy. He was one of the few people I really looked up to in this business.
Truly a great guy.
RIP ToddComment

R.I.P Todd.
Todd was a good guy, kind hearted and wasn't afraid to stand up for what he believed in. I've only spoken to him a few times in recent years, but every time he was in good spirits and it seemed like no time was lost.
Rest in Peace old friend.SharkyComment

Todd was a kind and honest entrepreneur. May he rest in peace, his family and friends will be in our prayers. I remember doing business with him back at Webinc and have a fond memory of his hospitality at one of the first shows that Melissa and I went to.

Oh man, sad news.
Great story T.
I have a funny business story about Todd...
I (anonymously) contacted a guy about buying his high value domain that wasn't up for sale.
He and I have brutal, BRUTAL, negotiations back and forth over the price. We go on for 2 weeks arguing every angle and we finally agree on a price.
When he sends the invoice I discover that Todd's actually the domain owner, and Todd discovers I'm the buyer.
He calls me and goes "Dude, why didn't you tell me it was you? I would have sold it to you for $5 grand less and we'd have done the deal in like 5 minutes." and I said "Dude, why didn't you tell me it was you? I would have bought it from you for $5 grand more and done the deal in like 5 minutes."
One of the good guys. RIP.-12clicks wears fancy boots.Comment

The king is dead, long live the Sextoyking
As long as I have been in the industry he is one of the very few people that has never ever had a bad word said of him personally or professionally.
He is in internet porn Heaven, where there is never a chargeback and conversions are 100%, retention for ever.
Todd will be missed from a world that needs way more like him.
