This is the article photo of John, Steven and I in the latest issue of Forbes magazine. Seriously, Forbes profiled Dogster! The articles leads with Molly surfing dog photos which inspired me to make Dogster, then goes into detail how I was able to bootstrap Dogster at first using adsense to get it up and running and then closes with how we’ve gone on to do huge things on very little money. I kind of wish the article gave greater weight to Steven and John as this would be nowhere without them, but otherwise it was a very factual and well researched piece.

My favorite quote is very truthful “I just wanted to make my rent. That was the business plan.”
