Was the lead engineer at NeoPets (10/2000 - 11/2002)

Focused on scaling (30m+ users), security (hackers), but also built guilds & games

After NP, had some success/exits as founder/cto (+ many lessons), 30+ 😇  investments

Love builders, helpers, and of course, Farcaster

Feel like a trip back to Neopia? 🙃

very interested in the mechanics that kept people coming back daily, especially getting people personally invested enough to get over the barrier of learning to code, learning to use photoshop - both intimidating for a noob. I’m sure some important lessons there that can be applied to consumer web3 adoption!

thank you for taking the time to read through all that, Charli! And for the tip! 🫶

if there was anything specifically you found interesting or you care to dive into anything deeper, would love to chat!
