schoolFeed acquired by United Online, Inc.

Jun 13, 2012

schoolFeed: Acquired by United Online Inc., the owner for Classmates.com, for an undisclosed price. schoolFeed, boasting 19 million members strong, provides a directory service for those looking to reconnect with high-school friends and old flames with services such as yearbook scanning. (Sounds a tad creepy, no?) A pretty smart move from United Online, especially as Classmates.com is essentially targeting the same demographic. If you can't beat them, acquire them.
