Time Magazine, known for their annual person of the year, has published a list of the top fifty web sites for 2009. It’s a very compelling and eclectic list of sites that is worth more than a passing glance.
What has me excited though is one of my clients, who advisory board I sit on, and where I’m a minor investor, Fonolo, has also made the list. This is very exciting for a few reasons.
1) Fonolo is really both a consumer and enterprise play. Time is largely a consumer publication but their writers are some of the best and smartest around. This is high praise for such a young company.
2) Fonolo is still at the angel funding round so far, and this mass media validation on top of all the niche media and largely trend or industry press they have received moves them way up in class.
3) Fonolo as a Canadian company, getting recognized by the USA largest circulating news weekly is a major feather in the founding team’s cap.
Congrats!
Thanks for the kind words, Andy.
