webStrategic

"webStrategic is a business-to-business application service provider and professional services company utilizing XML to redefine the way businesses build and manage alliances."

Make that "was."

In early 2000, I left from a job I loved at UWired to join a startup led by a good friend. We had a great idea, pretty good plan, excellent people, but not quite enough time to raise capital. The NASDAQ crashed. W we were crushed. It was a great experience. RealNetworks now pays my salary.

An article on "the dotcom downdraft" that includes me and a brief recounting of webStrategic's demise [mostly, but not completely, accurate]

My version of events [still unfinished]

Thankfully, we were never featured in this hall of fame [growing by the day]
