Sneakerplay has been acquired. As of March 2009, my three year social networking journey as owner will come to an end. I’ll be doing a follow-up post with all of the juicy details from dealing with investment bankers, to press coverage, bidding wars and exploding term sheets. The result of all of this hard work was that we were able to find a new home for Sneakerplay. I’m extremely humbled to have been able to build the foundations of what is now one of the premier urban social networks on the web. I look forward to sharing my experiences and insights on this blog, as well as thoughts on web culture and future experiments.
