Our interview this morning is with David Sacks, CEO of Geni.com, an online family tree and social networking site, as well as Yammer, the instant messaging startup spun out of Geni.com at TechCrunch50. We're up to around 2 million users who have created 30 million profiles on the site, and it's growing very fast month over month.

RedBeacon was the 3rd winner (year 1: Yammer, year 2: Mint.com) – not bad company. Ethan had pointed out to me that merchants were being barraged by “deal site” wanting to drive customers in the door but they didn’t have great tools to manage their customers. So there you have it. Nice sweep!

He’s done several startups and is a board member of the Technology Council of Southern California (which is where I met him originally). A typical day starts with email, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Yammer checks/updates. We need to spend some time discussing what you do with the social web. Love the minis!
