Great summary Mary. This is my first time to your blog, but it will not be the last! I was actually researching “Top Internet CEO/Founders” and came across your site. (I’ll never stop being amazed at how people think it’s okay to not only offer unsolicited advice, but to be rude in the process. There are ways to make your point without sounding like a spoiled brat. Thankfully, some do get it right.) Anyway, this info will be very useful to me. Thanks for the great work!!

These reviews are such inspiring. At least we get a hint of who are behind the big brands in the cyberspace! Such stories will surely encourage other internet people. do you agree?

Bugger! I’m far too good looking to make it big time. I guess I’ll have to stick to what we do best.
Get another bottle of Bollinger out of the cooler.

@Buzzy Yes thank you for the clarification. Jobs did not found Pixar.

@smashing themes: you’re right, shouldn’t have put Eric Schmidt as google co-founder. I went on to say in the first sentence that “Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were students at Stanford University” but there was probably some confusion so thanks!

also… i was curious about the whole geek/nerd debate and here are the definitions of the two:

nerd – an intelligent but single-minded expert in a particular technical field or profession
geek: an enthusiast or expert especially in a technological field or activity

…similar, but not quite the same. interesting point –but i still like the way nerd sounds
