some people may have noticed that only Elon Musk features on the frontpage for Paypal while Peter Thiel and Max Levchin are not.

Apparently there is a lot of politics behind this, with Thiel and Sequoia having been at odds over funding, the IPO and then selling to eBay.

Also, supposedly one of the big motivations for Thiel and Founders Fund was to compete and out-do Sequoia.

Sean Parker from Plaxo also isn't on the front page. Moritz had him locked out of his Plaxo office by changing the locks, and then fired him. Funnily enough Parker now works with Thiel at Founders Fund.

Funny what you can learn from that webpage.

There's no way to learn any of this from that page without external knowledge...
