As I mentioned on SingleFeed, we won an award! This is a testament to the hard work of the SingleFeed team. And we’re just beginning. We have a ton of stuff in development that will give our merchants the power to succeed on the shopping engines this holiday shopping season and well into 2008 and beyond.
On a side note, I wanted to congratulate Gaia Online, this year’s overall AO Top Private Company Award winner. My brother is the CEO of Gaia Online. Very proud that my big bro and his team were also recognized for their incredible achievements!
Here’s what I wrote over at SingleFeed:
We’re thrilled to announced that AlwaysOn has selected SingleFeed as a AO100 Top Private Company Award Winner. You can find out more about the award and see a complete list of winners at AlwaysOn. Here’s SingleFeed’s press release.
It’s great to be recognized as an innovative and disruptive force. It shows that our product vision has legs (lots of them) and our development team has produced incredible results.
And this is only the beginning. We’ve been hard at work improving the back-end architecture, adding new engines (coming very soon), working on partnerships, and much more. We’re giving our merchants the knowledge and power to succeed this holiday shopping season and well into 2008 and beyond. The tools and features we’re developing will enable SingleFeed merchants to rise above the crowd as they tackle the rough seas of data feeds and the comparison shopping engines.
Thanks to AlwaysOn for the recognition and thanks to our merchants, friends, investors, advisers, and partners for your continued support, critique, and advice, as we continue to build an incredible product.
P.S. Just wanted to add that this is not a ‘pay for play’ award. We did not grease any wheels to get this done. There is a CEO Speaker Series that we decided not to participate in because it is ‘pay for play’. That’s not to say that it’s wrong to ‘pay to play’ it’s just that we did not feel it was appropriate at this point. If it ever does become appropriate, we’ll let you know and be completely open about why the decision was made.
Congratulations on your hard work Brian. I’ll check out the links -
