AOL Acquires Personal Profile Startup About.Me http://techcrunch.com/2010/12/20/aol-acquires-personal-profile-startup-about-me/Personal profile startup About.me launched publicly, oh, all of four days ago. And, boom. Today AOL (our parent company), will announce that they’ve acquired the company. It will become part of the consumer applications group, led by AOL exec Brad Garlinghouse....Frankly I’m a little surprised by the acquisition....But frankly it’s just too soon to take About.me off the market. Conrad has had multiple wins as an entrepreneur and is more than financially secure. and I’m surprised he didn’t wait to see this one through a bit.
