Onward
4 December 2004
After four years at Tickle.com, I've moved on. And what a ride it was. My time there spanned the tail end of dot com boom exuberance; the nuclear-winter-like cold of the dot com crash; our forays into premium content subscriptions, matchmaking, social networking, and internationalization; the team's more than tripling in size; and the company's acquisition by Monster Worldwide, one of the highest-traffic network of websites in the world.
I'll certainly miss the daily interaction with those I worked with there. To quote Bilbo Baggins (in uncharacteristically nerdy fashion, of course), "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."
Good luck, everyone. It's been grand.
