I always wondered. What happened to the team behind start.com ? At the time I thought it could have been a golden brand and the realization was slick, I remember reading they had a lot of freedom to experiment.

Like Sidewalk, Mungo Park, and any number of initiatives it was managed into extinction by political ineptness.

I still miss Sidewalk. For a lovely couple of years, you could rely on quality reviews of everything in your hometown.

It could have totally owned much of the space now occupied by Yelp and Craigslist. A true class act Bill pulled the plug on far too early. One of his most egregious mistakes IMHO.
