Michael Seibel founded two YC companies: Justin.tv and Socialcam
- OafTobark 13y agoMy understanding was SocialCam and Twitch.TV were both built under Justin.TV. Only later was Twitch.TV spun out. Not sure SocialCam was ever a separate company. Anyone with better knowledge can chime in
- zbruhnke 13y agoSocial Cam was spun out as a separate company and participated in the same batch of YC as me (W12) They also sold it to Autodesk for about $60MM if I recall correctly only a month or two after the batch. Michael was a super nice guy and should be considered a great example here. I always appreciated him bringing beer to the dinners personally though I remember the group office hours with him and his great insights into problems or struggles we were having just as fondly.
