<h1>About Us</h1>
<p>We're a privately funded early-stage startup founded by three Internet
entrepreneurs. Our combined experience includes founding German auction
site Alando.de (acquired by eBay), founding comparison shopping engine
DealPilot.com (acquired by Shopping.com) and working for companies like
Bertelsmann and Hewlett-Packard. </p>
<p>People from three continents work for Pageflakes, so at any time somewhere
someone is working to make your experience with Pageflakes an even better
one. If you think you can help us build the ultimate personalized startpage
for the Web, we'd love to <a href="mailto:info@pageflakes.com">hear
from you</a>! </p>
