We’re all socially connected (so great businesses spread faster). Lower costs to start a business (95% reduction), many more companies created & funded by angels / seed.

Cloud computing and the open source movements have brought down the costs of starting a company by more than 90%. The movie, “The Social Network” might have had more of an impact on creating future entrepreneurs than any other event of the past 5 years. Thank you, Aaron Sorkin! Mobility really changes everything.

Can you give a brief overview: when you were founded, investors, current status? It varies case-to-case.
