DailyStrength!

Yesterday I caught up with my old pal Dave Mandelbrot, and this morning I got the news that another former Yahoo! pal, Doug Hirsch, sold his company DailyStrength to HSW International. Check out TC’s post on the sale here.

The concept of DailyStrength has always been a favorite of mine, however despite Doug and teams efforts they weren’t able to break through on the audience front. One of the challenges I suspect might be the fact that while DS created a platform for people to gather around challenging physical and mentai health issues, that reality may be more than most folks want to share with others in an online forum? Who knows?

Hopefully HSW was smart enough to figure out how to keep Doug involved — he’s a great product guy, particularly when it comes to social media and community applications.

Good luck in what’s next DH.
