I can't believe how fast time flies... This past January 30th officially marked the

one year anniversary of the AOL acquisition of Goowy Media

.

Some of the things, both personal and professional that I've done since January of last year:

• closed down the Goowy office in San Diego's Gaslamp District

• sold my condo in San Diego's East Village

• converted users of Goowy's original webtop product to AOL Mail

• moved to Santa Monica

• migrated Goowy's datacenter from Complex Drive to an AOL operated facility

• attended my dad's 59th birthday party - he says he's not celebrating his 60th birthday this year

• brought on additional support to help Goowy with its growth in the new environment

• witnessed the Bris of my cousin's second son, Jack

• worked with AOL's PlatformA group to roll out widgets as ads which have shown success with various campaigns

• had an absolutely amazing bachelor party in Playa del Carmen which Alex orchestrated brilliantly

• worked through countless product releases for yourminis

• took off for a few weeks to see Thien's heritage in Vietnam, to get married in Thailand and to honeymoon in The Maldives

I'm sure I've missed a lot in that quick synopsis, but there is no doubt that it has been a busy - and exciting year. Time sure does fly..
