Over the next few years, Reinhart and his co-founders founded a small company in Boston, raised angel funding, packed their bags for San Francisco, and went through a number of fascinating shifts in their business model and vertical focus before eventually stumbling into something potentially big. And, for a nice touch of symmetry, the company just announced the appointment of two former Netflix executives to the company's roster, one to lead operations and the other to the board.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/uBu3hh2nOkk/
