These guys are the founders of a very popular web company. The site has an interesting story. For the longest time, it was called a clone or another popular website, but of late, they have surged ahead of the site they supposedly “cloned”. Which company are these three the founders of?

My horrible paint job on the image hides their mascot.

Greetings, intrepid quizzers.

Here’s wishing all of you a happy and quizzical new year 2012!

It’s been great having you all along all the way through 2011. We had a blast posting questions as always (and got blasted juggling our lives with Boiledbeans) and every bit of it has been fun. We hope you enjoyed it too!

Considering that us humans love celebrating arbitrary milestones, we know that you’re probably going to spend some time celebrating and might not be around a computer. So we’re leaving the questions open to be answered a bit longer. All questions remain open till Dec Jan 3rd! We’ll get back to normal schedule starting on 3rd.

Have fun, stay safe, and have a happy 2012!
