    How LFGdating Started 6 Years Ago

    Six and a half years ago, my phone rings. Patrick is calling from his station near a Marine base in Hawaii. “You said you could make a dating site for gamers right?” I didn’t tell you that this call came in late on a Tuesday night. “Yeah. I’ll need your help, but yes – we can do…

    World of Warcraft Movie Has One Chance to Deliver

    We want the upcoming World of Warcraft film to be the bees’ knees. Actually, we want it to deliver more than the final Hobbit installment delivered.
