The beginning of my internet career. Started freeloader with Sunil Paul. We raced to release the first Web-based push technology service the same day that Pointcast released their much nicer looking 'closed' platform service. We sold freeloader to Individual, inc., a public company founded by Yosi Amram just before the onslaught of dozens of push services.
