This reading opens with a new character, Sean Parker. Sean Parker woke up unknowingly at Stanford, in california with womens lingire all over his room. He figured he must have had a good night. Sean didn't even go to Stanford, but everyone knew who he was. He, along with his original business partner Shawn Fanning changed the recording industry by creating Napster. However, Napster didn't last very long, after a while record companies got the best of the two Seans and Napster was shut down, although Sean didn't regret any of it. Things didn't get much better for Sean after that, years later he and a couple buddies built a multi-billion dollar social networking company, but in the end Sean was kicked out. It was Michael Mortiz whom brought Sean down, a noted investor who Sean brought in on Plaxo himself. Sean needed a way to get himself back into the business. He had already looked at Myspace & Friendster to get himself back, and then came facebook.
I'm really interested to see how much a signifigant role Sean is going to play in all this. He just might be the one to break up Eduardo and Mark's relationship. We'll see how everything goes.
