I am an entrepreneur and technology strategist with more than a dozen years experience in the online sector. Through Cloudspace - an online consultancy I co-founded in 1996 - and related ventures I have helped hundreds of companies online.
In 2005, I co-founded MyBlogLog with my grade school friend Eric Marcoullier. MyBlogLog is notable for a number of firsts, including being the first distributed online social network. Eric, I and Scott Rafer - who joined the startup as CEO - sold MyBlogLog to Yahoo! in early 2007.
Today, I continue to lead technology for MyBlogLog as a Director at Yahoo! I also serve as Chairman of the Board for Cloudspace, a member of the Board for TheDJList.com, and as an active adviser to a number of organizations & entrepreneurs.
I live in San Francisco, California and Orlando, Florida with my wife Lissy and son Finn.

Was great meeting you yesterday at the expo, todd — like I said, I’m a huge MyBlogLog fan, and look forward to staying in touch, and hearing about new things you work on. Ping me if you come to Seattle — we’ll get Sawicki to buy us coffee

“Hey Stephanie… Hope things are going well.
Sorry for the delay in getting back with you. I would still love to do the interview sometime soon. But I have been pulled out of action by my wife while we wait for the birth of our second child — which should be any day now. Once things get back to normal, I will ping you to get the interview setup.
Cheers,
Todd”
How exciting! Congratulations on the new coming and God bless every member of your family. Anytime that is convenient for you and certainly new babies are time consuming. Have a brilliant time with this incredible time of your life. Again, whenever you have time, we will look forward to your interview. Thank you and Congrats again
ps) I tried to reply on MyBlogLog, but maybe there are updates being done just now. I am on my way to a convention and wanted to get this to you
