History of FanBox

The History of FanBox.com
Many people have asked how FanBox was started; by whom; and what are the motivations of the FanBox team.
Using this blog, I will do my best to bring you the FanBox story - by interviewing FanBox employees - both current and past employees.
If you work (or previously worked) at FanBox, please
send me your stories, photos or videos -- and I will do
my best to assemble them into their correct chapter.
As I progress, I will continually add more chapters over the coming weeks and months -- and go back to edit previous chapters -- until we have the full story of the Good, the Bad, and Everything In-Between.

The Beginning

FanBox was started here in a 3-bedroom condo (apartment #402) in San Diego, California:
It was started in a residential condo (instead of an office building) because the company had no money and wanted to keep the costs very, very low.
Everyone knew that if they wanted to eventually be able to give money back to the community users and their chosen charitable causes, they would need to keep the company private and out of the control of profit-seeking investors.
This condo was owned by one of the employees, so they didn't have to pay rent.
The company had no money, and could pay no salaries or give employees any benefits -- for years.
