About two months ago I announced my departure from ActiveRain full-time to found a yet to be announced start-up outside of the real estate industry.  I've been pretty silent around here, for a little bit but have been hard at work on the new venture.  While I'm still keeping most of the details under wraps, but I think it should be pretty obvious from the logo what industry it's in :

Matt, good to see you back on AR. Look forward to more details. It is still to mysterious for me at this point. Social Network for Sportsfans??? Can they break away from the TV sets and post comments?? Let us know. Good luck and lots of success!

Can't wait to see the new site. I'm sure with your vision, it will be awesome. Are you doing an Activerain type site for sports fans? Glad things are going well and can't wait for it to unfold. Lots of sports fans here so I'm sure some of us will follow you.I think I heard a twit on this, something about Ginger coming up with a name in some language. I couldn't find the start of the conversation, but I think this is what I heard.

Matt, I just came looking for you because I noticed you were not on Brad's Xmas card!! I, for one, will definitely miss your "state of the economy" posts!! (hopefully you'll still throw one in now and then.

Good luck in your new endeavor. I have no doubt you will be successful.

Well I'm happy to finally have the private beta of Timu operational today.  A couple weeks behind schedule but I'm still looking to actually launch this thing publically in April.  Unlike what we've become so acustom to with companies such as Google, it's a beta test, not a product launch with a beta tag slapped on it, so most of the site is hidden from everyone except a small group of beta testers.

So what is Timu?

Timu is a communication and social networking platform for amateur sports teams (little league, high school, adult rec leagues, etc).
