David founded Geocities back in 1994, took it public in 1998, and in 1999 Yahoo bought the firm as a public company. He was basically active investing until 2004 and 2005, and then started getting much more involved in the non-profit space. From MySpace, to Google, to Yahoo, to other large successful companies like LowerMyBills--all of these firms have built a good presence here, with lots of product and engineering talent. A few months ago, Peter Lee --a venture local capitalist who has served at firms such as Prism Ventures and Clearstone Ventures Partners--joined a relatively unknown venture firm here in Southern California, Baroda Ventures (www.barodaventures.com).
