    Grats Howard. Great idea, great execution. Andy and I knew it was a winner when you told us about it. If only our sale had come a few months prior. Oh well....I think we can all still get something going ;)

    Atta Boy Howard and team! I'm out of the country right now, but heard a la internet about the acquisition!
    Don't let the A holes get to you. How many of them put together a business that was purchased by old media in a little less than 8 months?
    Good for you, and good stuff to hear for sure!
  • Daniel Birch · 2 years ago
    Congrats on the CBS deal....you guys should think about a European version....we have nothing like it over here in the UK....a "before the market open" post would generate a lot of interest....aimed at the commuters with their video IPODs.....anyway well done.
  • howard Lindzon · 2 years ago
    Daniel - we are.
  • Vijay Chandran · 2 years ago
    Howard, I sincerely cant be more happy. I know you are like a virus. You spread enthusiasm every where. You blog is an exact reflection. I am sure you did a lot of travel cost to cost for playing to WS. As I said I always supported It was a funny show an I really enjoyed. I am afraid CBS become more professional and kill the fun part I enjoyed.

    Once more hats of to you and the great team.
