Clyde Jones (USA: CA)Clyde used to work for me at Lyris as a programmer, but he was too much of a wiz kid to stay in that kind of job for long, and so we went and started his own company, a netflix-for-video-games which became Gplay. He sold that, and now is contemplating his next world-dominating move.

What this person's friends have to say about 'John Buckman (USA: CA)':

treehugger (USA: CA): "Everyone should have a friend like John as a personal library consultant."
Dan Shaurette (USA: AZ): "John's altruism is well known, so I need not praise him for that. However, while I am still working on my own bookmooch-like website, I do not consider it to be in competition. I think every website can compliment others. Mashups abound because of this. In the end, the service BookMooch provides is amazing, I do like it a lot, and I think John is an all around cool guy."
John Buckman (United Kingdom): ""johnbuckman" is my account for my books in my house in London, UK. "buckman_ca" is my account for my books in Berkeley, California."
Cesar Luongo (USA: FL): "Coolest Internet visionary on both sides of the Atlantic"
Michael (USA: MA): "Good guy ... glad he is on this side of the Atlantic for awhile."
Tim Harris (United Kingdom): "My dim sum buddy!"
tanya Tomkins (USA: CA): "John's a totally cool dude who created this whole website. He's multi-talented, as is his wife Jan, and they're great to eat with in restaurants."
