  January 2006 — July 2009 (3 years 7 months)

  TeeBeeDee was a social network for people 40+. Backed by Shasta and Monitor Ventures and a group of incredible angels, TBD.com was the most successful network aimed at this demographic in terms of user engagement and investment efficiency. Launched virtual goods to strong response. Decided in mid-2009 not to raise further capital as the business was not of sufficient scale.
