This work is a positive, inspirational account of a dream that survived the birth and maturation of an industry whose greatest successes are believed to lie ahead. It is a narrative that is part adventure story, part romance, and part documentary of an era that business will never experience again. This is the story of one man's wildest dreams come true and the dramatic chronicling of the inception and evolution of an industry.

Stephan Paternot cofounded theglobe.com in the fall of 1994 at Cornell University. He completed six rounds of both private and public financing for theglobe.com, totaling nearly $200 million, and successfully led his company through an initial public offering at the age of twenty-four. In his six years of business as CEO, he assembled a management team including industry veterans from CBS, Saatchi & Saatchi, Dow Jones & Co., and Simon & Schuster. Theglobe.com was frequently ranked a top fifty site in the world with revenues reaching $30 million in 2000. Paternot founded theglobe.com while in the middle of completing his computer science and business degree at Cornell University. Upon graduating in 1996, he relocated from Ithaca to New York City. Paternot is originally from the U.K. and Switzerland where he lived for the first eighteen years of his life.
