Never Too Late To Introduce Myself :-) Hi Oprano!

TaDoW · 02-01-2005

Off to a slightly rocky start, but after talking with a few of the folks, Oprano seems like a cool ass place to hang out! Sorry to say you might be hearing more from me =)

For those of you who don't know me, I've been in the industry for a while. I got my start programming for Sexhound.com way the fuck back in the day and moved on to marketing under the direction of BrettJ after he saved my ass from being fired because I sucked shit at programming. Eventually I ended up moving over to the Advertising dept at sexhound (there, the advertising dept sold the traffic), where I became president of the department and COO of the company. (early internet job titles were soooo awesome)

One thing led to another (37 page story will come later) and brett and I took to the street and began consulting for 100free.com (old school free host), and we built phathost and started selling bandwidth for Dynamic Hosting. A while later the relationship ended (on good terms) with Jay and Chad from dynamic/100free .... Chad gave us RedneckPorn to run while we started back at school and started carving out plans to make DormAngels.

With a few thousand bucks, a digital camera, and a sweet hookup on free hosting through Dynamic, brett and I launched DormAngels. At the birth of the site, I was working at sextracker selling ads for them ... pretty much buying time until DA was making enough to support both of us full time. That and Bode only kept me around to keep either Brett or I tied up in a non-compete so we wouldn't start a counter and destroy ST :-) didn't matter anyway, we had experimented with counters a bit after sexhound and found them to be fairly dead (which might explain why ST has had its hands in everything BUT counters lately).

so 4 years later, I'm co-owner of www.DormBucks.com and we have our network of paysites that pay the mortgage and put food on the table.

Anyway... that's my story and I'm stickin to it! Nice to meet you all!
