Another year has flown by and Fanpop turns two years old on August 1, 2008! We launched the public beta site two years ago today and it’s been a wild ride. The site looks so different now than it did when we launched it. This year we spent a lot of time [...]

Dave pointed out a very funny posting to a project-posting website called ScripLance the other day. The site allows individuals and companies to post job/projects to solicit bids from third-parties. Imagine our surprise then, when we found out that someone named “wiklos” had posted a request to build him a Fanpop clone. Amusingly, the [...]

(Fanpop is discussed on page 6) There’s even a nice photograph of the team (albeit from 2 years ago). The only downside to the article is that the author messed up some of [...]

During the week, Papa and I often work from a cafe here in San Francisco while Michael and Cliff work from home down in the South Bay. We tried out a bunch of places with free wireless a la Hotspotr. We started off at the place where all of the new startups in [...]
