- adastra 14y agoThe Causes website says he's chairman of the board, not CEO. That's a huge difference. My comment wasn't meant to denigrate Causes, which is great. By all accounts Parker is full time at Airtime. He has $2 billion of wealth, non-trivial technical and business skill, and another 40+ years of lifespan to tackle one or more of the world's toughest problems. It doesn't exactly help silicon valley's public image when one of its most public faces does a huge hyped up launch for... chat roulette redux. After the unfortunate post-IPO performance of groupon, facebook, and zynga, the perception of silicon valley is in bad enough shape as it is.
