A long strange work history...
When talking about my work history, people are amused when I explained that I went to work for a web agency start-up that went through a variety of mutations and eight years later we were running a NASCAR social network. The chronology goes something like this: the web agency started during the end of the dot-com boom and went out of business in 2001. We all went to work for our biggest customer, who then spun out the group into a new web agency, which merged with another one. While at this company we started a white label social tools company. We sold off the original web agency to focus on one of the social networks we launched - the NASCAR site. Two of us made the entire trip over the 8 year period.
I recently ran across and old colleague who I met when we were working at Macromedia. He left Macromedia to go to work for Atomz which was bought by WebSideStory which was renamed Visual Sciences and sold to Omniture which was then bought by Adobe which also bought Macromedia. He now works in the old Macromedia offices in SF. Any one else got a story?
