WAYN, AOL and the smell of cooking

It may be breaking the faith - the unspoken bond between all males - but I quite like to cook. I’m no TV chef you’ll understand. But pottering about in the kitchen kind of helps me relax. Spaghetti Bolognese - my favorite dish. Easy to knock together and a fantastic taste. I also like flinging together a nice stew - a bit like the folks over at travel-log social site (Where Are You Now?).

They have put together a fantastic stew. It started in 2002 and over the past 5 or so years they have added the meat in the form of over 8 million users worldwide. Their creation has simmered gently to the point where revenues are around the $3million - $4million mark and is now almost ready to serve. But what about the vegetables I hear you cry? You can’t have a stew without vegetables!

Well the vegetables have arrived just in the nick of time in the form of , the ‘portal’ people. They are reportedly in negotiations to buy for $200million. OK so I am being totally unfair to call the management vegetables. It’s an insult too far. I will have vegetable lovers from across the world sending me hate mail.
