Just goes to show though that even in a world of rich 'shady' people - one clean person could still make it and make it big. Also, if my memory serves (and quiet can correct me on this) - I don't think he had many sites - I think he only had one (perhaps 2 but this wasn't some program with 20-100 paysites).

quiet - the question I have is, by the time iBill died, you could have had so many other billing options put into place, why did you choose to just let it die with it? **Over the course of a few months, you could have had your users 'choosing' to switch over to the new biller, right?**
hehe, cheers girl. i have just never had (or wanted) to fuck people over. it was easy (well, maybe not exactly easy)... to produce a quality product, and push the fuck out of it. crank it out as far as it would go. that was the basic philosophy behine UWS. i had 3 paysites over the 10 years, but really, the only one that matters was UWS. ultrawired.com forwarded to UWS by around 2000.
