Zoosk is top 500 now

leave a comment »

I recently noticed that Zoosk has crossed into the top 500 sites worldwide in terms of traffic. Now onto the top 100 :-) I think we will get there much faster than it took us to go from millions to 500. Anybody wants to guess when we might cross it?

Late to the party: twitter

leave a comment »

Last year around the same time I decided to join Facebook after reading an article I read in Wall Street Journal. I had no idea a year later I will be super busy building a business that is based on ideas first materialized by Facebook. When I joined Facebook it was by no means a new phenomenon in the web community which was strange for me because I am usually and early adopter when it comes to technology.

I have been having similar feelings about Twitter. Twitter has been the tech community’s darling for over a year now after their SBSW breakout last winter. I honestly can’t see what the excitement is about but I can’t ignore so much appreciation by the community for much longer. So, I finally gave in and signed up. You can “follow me” here if you are interested.
You never know, maybe history repeats itself and I will be building a business on Twitter next year. Oh wait, maybe i will mix Facebook and Twitter and do something on that…
