SFGate on Friendster Founder and Socializr

• amichail 20y ago
  I knew Jonathan from junior high. I must admit that his (initial) success with Friendster encouraged me to pursue a startup. So I ended up leaving academia to pursue a startup full-time.

    Other famous people I knew from junior high: Randy Linden and Mark Vange. Anyone recognize them? As you might guess, I'm a bit jealous!

  I love how you can't actually tell what Socializr does until you go through their very long and painful signup process.
