Sky Dayton
Born 8 August 1971
New York City, New York
Nationality American
Occupation Entrepreneur
Spouse Arwen Elys Dayton
Sky Dylan Dayton (born August 8, 1971) is an American entrepreneur and investor. He is the founder of Internet service provider EarthLink,[1][2][3] co-founder of eCompanies,[4] and the founder of Boingo.[5][6]
Contents
Early life
Dayton's father was the sculptor Wendell Dayton,[7] and his mother is Alice Pero, a poet and flutist.
(VZ comment:what a cool set of parents to have eh? Wonder where they got that middle name?
)Shortly after his birth in New York City, the family moved to Los Angeles. He lived for a time with his maternal grandfather, David DeWitt, an IBM Fellow, who played a large part in introducing Dayton to technology.[4][9]
At the age of 9, he got his first computer, a Sinclair ZX81, which he used to learn programming in BASIC. At 16, Dayton graduated from The Delphian School, a private boarding school in Oregon, which uses study methods developed by L. Ron Hubbard.[10][11] He wanted to be an animator but was rejected when he applied to CalArts (the California Institute for the Arts), saying he was too young at the time.[12] Instead, Dayton got an entry-level job at a Burbank, California, advertising firm and three months later headed the graphics department.[13] He moved to a larger advertising agency, Mednick & Associates, where he held a similar role until he was 18.[14][15][relevant? – discuss]
Entrepreneurial career
Dayton started his first business in 1990 at age 19. He and a friend raised money from family and friends to open Mocha Gallery (later Cafe Mocha), an art gallery and coffee house in Los Angeles.[4][16][17] While managing Cafe Mocha, Dayton and friend Adam Wicks Walker opened Dayton/Walker Design in 1992, a Studio City advertising and design firm, serving entertainment clients including Fox Television, Disney, Columbia Pictures, Sony Pictures, and Warner Brothers.[15][18]
In 1993, after initially having great difficulties getting his Macintosh computer to access the Internet, Dayton said that he realized that the Internet was likely to become the next mass communications medium.[19] In an article in Vanity Fair, Dayton described his earliest interest in the Internet and its business potential:[20]
I heard about this thing called the Internet. I thought, That sounds kind of interesting. The first thing I did is I actually picked up the phone and dialed 411, and I said, I’d like the number for the Internet, please. And the operator is like, What? I said, Just search any company with the word Internet in the name. Blank. Nothing. I thought, Wow, this is interesting. What is this thing anyway?
—?Sky Dayton
In 1994, Dayton founded EarthLink, an Internet service provider (ISP) that would offer Internet access to the public.[21] Kevin O'Donnell, father of a childhood friend, and Reed Slatkin became EarthLink's first financial backers.[16][17] Other investors followed, including Greg B. Abbott, former AT&T CFO Robert Kavner,[22] Chip Lacy, and eventually larger investors such as George Soros.[23]
EarthLink started in a small office of 600 square feet (56 m2) in Los Angeles, California. By the summer of 1995, EarthLink reached an agreement with UUNET allowing it to provide service nationwide. By 1996, the company was growing at a rate of 5–10% a week. Dayton transitioned his title from founding CEO to executive chairman, handing over day-to-day operations of the company to Charles "Garry" Betty.[23] A long-time Mac user, Dayton led the creation of a strategic partnership with Steve Jobs at Apple in 1998 that made EarthLink the default ISP pre-loaded on the iMac.[24] This arrangement led to a $200 million investment by Apple in EarthLink.[25] EarthLink grew to become the second largest U.S. Internet service providers, after AOL, with more than four million customers and over $1 billion in annual revenue.[26][27]
In June 1999, Dayton's title changed again, this time to non-executive chairman of EarthLink. He formed eCompanies, an incubator and venture capital fund for developing Internet companies, with former Disney Internet chief Jake Winebaum.[4] A privately held company, eCompanies successfully launched LowerMyBills.com, which was purchased by Experian in 2005 for $380 million and JAMDAT Mobile, which went public and was then purchased by Electronic Arts in 2005 for $680 million.[28] Dayton and eCompanies made headlines by buying the Business.com domain name for $7.5 million, believed to be the highest price ever paid for a domain at the time,[29] during the height of the dot com bubble; they later sold the Business.com search portal to RH Donnelly in 2007 for $345 million.[30][31][32]
In 2001, Dayton started Boingo Wireless. Boingo aggregates Wi-Fi hotspots around the globe into a single network, and has grown into one of the largest Wi-Fi operators.[35] Boingo filed for its IPO in January 2011,[36] listing Dayton as owning 15% of the company.[37] On May 4, 2011, Boingo Wireless went public selling 5,770,000 shares at $13.50, raising $77.9 million. Dayton served as Boingo's chairman until August, 2014.[6]
In 2005, Dayton became CEO of Helio, a mobile phone joint venture of EarthLink and SK Telecom, formed with $220 million in funding from each company.[38] At that time, Dayton resigned as chairman of EarthLink but remained a director. In January 2008, he was appointed Chairman of Helio's board of directors for the months leading up to Helio's acquisition by Virgin Mobile USA in June, 2008.[39]
Dayton is a board member of digital education company Age of Learning,[40][41] which raised $150 million in 2016 at a $1 billion valuation,[42] and $300 million in July 2021, giving the company a $3 billion valuation.[43]
He is an investor in and board member of Diffbot,[44][45] a semantic web and structured data startup,[46] and Artsy,[47][48] an online art marketplace, which raised a reported $50 million in July, 2017.[49] Dayton said of the art market and company, “only very few people who could afford to buy [art] are doing so. Many are held back by high barriers to entry, which Artsy is solving.”[50]
He is an investor in Joby Aviation,
( A VZ GBA 150% winner btw) a NASA LeapTech participant building an electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, which raised $100 million[51][52] from Intel, JetBlue and Toyota in February, 2018 and went public in August, 2021, at a value of $6.6 billion.[53][54]Dayton was an early investor in video doorbell company Ring,[55] which was acquired by Amazon in February, 2017 for $1 billion.[56]
Dayton is a co-founder of City Storage Systems and CloudKitchens, which in March, 2018 secured a $150 million investment from Uber founder Travis Kalanick, who also joined the company as its CEO,[57][58] with plans as of February, 2019, to expand into China.[59][60]
In January, 2019, Dayton led the Series A investment in micro satellite startup Swarm Technologies, along with PayPal co-founder David Sacks. About the investment, Dayton said, “Swarm’s approach reminds me of the early years at EarthLink—stay super scrappy, serve customers and generate revenue quickly.”[61] Swarm was acquired by SpaceX in August, 2021,[62] in a transaction described as "a rare deal by Elon Musk’s space company that expands the team — and possibly the technological capabilities — of its growing Starlink internet service."[63]

Wow Stoney...
Since I made that post (above), we had 423 views.
Pretty interesting really.
That's a lot of people.
You need to quit acting silly sometimes.
The readers think you're nuts.
I of course know better, but that's beside the point.

Instant Analysis: Giants defeat Texans, 24-16
Nov 13, 2022 at 05:35 PM
Fresh off the bye and their best start in a decade, the Giants opened the second half of their season with a 24-16 victory over the Houston Texans. The Giants improved to 7-2 while the Texans fell to 1-7-1.
UP NEXT
The Giants play four home games in five weeks coming out of the bye. Next up is a visit from the Detroit Lions, who improved to 3-6 on Sunday with a 31-30 victory over the Chicago Bears. The Lions lost their previous two meetings with the Giants in 2017 and 2019.
WHAT WE LEARNED ABOUT THE OFFENSE
*The Giants stuck with a run-heavy script, rushing 45 times compared to just 17 passes. Coming off a season-low 53 yards rushing in Seattle, Saquon Barkley had 17 carries for 75 yards in the first half alone. He went on to record his 16th career 100-yard game on the ground, finishing with 35 carries for 152 yards (fourth-most of career) and a touchdown.
*Daniel Jones had one of the most efficient games of his career, completing 13 of 17 passes for 197 yards, two touchdowns, no turnovers, and a career-high passer rating of 153.3.
*Holding a 7-3 lead at halftime, Darius Slayton sparked the team with a 54-yard, catch-and-run touchdown on the opening drive of the third quarter. The Giants also found the end zone on their first possession of the game. Slayton finished with three catches for 95 yards, the fifth-highest total of his career.
*The Giants ruled out just two players, both rookies, on Friday's final injury report: tight end Daniel Bellinger (eye) and right tackle Evan Neal (knee).
*On Saturday, the Giants activated offensive tackle Matt Peart from reserve and elevated tight end Lawrence Cager and defensive lineman Henry Mondeaux from the practice squad for Sunday's home game against the Houston Texans. Peart, who was on the physically unable to perform list, returned to practice last month. He suffered a torn ACL last Dec. 26 in Philadelphia.
*Cager, who had just two career receptions with the Jets in 2020 entering Sunday, caught his first touchdown on the Giants' opening drive. Cager, 6-5 and 220 pounds, was released by the Jets on Oct. 15 and picked up by the Giants three days later.
*Claimed off waivers from the Buffalo Bills on Nov. 2, wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins made his Giants debut and caught two passes for 41 yards.
*As expected, wide receiver Kenny Golladay returned after the bye week, suiting up for the first time since Week 4 due to a knee injury. The veteran had no catches on two targets.
Highlights: Giants defeat Texans, 24-16
WHAT WE LEARNED ABOUT THE DEFENSE
*With safety and defensive co-captain Xavier McKinney sidelined for at least four games after fracturing fingers on his left hand in an off-road accident in Cabo San Lucas last week, Julian Love assumed the green dot on his helmet, which meant he relayed defensive coordinator Wink Martindale's calls to the players on the field. Rookie safety Dane Belton also stepped up in his absence and recorded his first career interception with 9:49 left in an 11-point game.
*Martindale said Houston's Dameon Pierce, a candidate for Offensive Rookie of the Year, "might be the angriest runner in the league." So, it was no surprise where the Giants' game plan started on Sunday. Defensive lineman Henry Mondeaux and Dexter Lawrence stuffed him for a loss of one yard on the first play of the game. Pierce finished with 94 yards, 44 of which came on one run.
*The Giants forced three-and-outs on the first three possessions as the Texans ran nine plays for a net loss of three yards in the first quarter.
*In the middle of a career season, Lawrence cause chaos all over the field, recording five tackles (one for loss), a sack, four quarterback hits, and a batted pass at the line of scrimmage. His linemate, Leonard Williams, delivered another blow early in the fourth quarter, stripping the ball from Pierce at the Giants' eight-yard line with Jaylon Smith recovering it.
Postgame Presser: Coach Daboll reacts to victory
WHAT WE LEARNED ABOUT THE SPECIAL TEAMS
*Starting cornerback Adoree' Jackson handled punt return duties after Richie James lost two fumbles in the team's last game before the bye week. James also suffered a concussion on the second play but was active on Sunday. Jackson had not returned a punt since 2019 with the Titans.
*Graham Gano made his long field goal attempt from 49 yards to give the Giants a two-possession lead with 1:55 remaining in the game.

Hey your "tech is dead" call.... you're lucky I'm so nice.
The Q's had their biggest one day move the next day... which you milked for bragging rights on a few of these dogs you keep returning to the well on... after multiple bottom calls on said stocks over the last few months on your part.But I let these things go... and let you brag.
SentinelOne merits moi looking at it this week. As I said before... (and as it turns out, 1000% correct on the part of VZ since dropped 30% from your strong buy recommendation at $29+
... there must be fleas somewhere) :
I think $19 might be worth a look for earnings. The savant will dig into this later in the week.
Funny, the above post... APPS had that HUGE run you were going on about, and it's still below the $20.10 in your post above from September.

I BET SHAREHOLDERS OF PLTR DON'T KNOW THEY ARE PIPE INVESTORS IN 21 COMPANIES...
Palantir could lose $9M in annual sales from Fast Radius. says William Blair 09:13 PLTR, FSRD Fast Radius (FSRD), a startup provider of advanced manufacturing services based in Chicago, filed for bankruptcy last week, news that most Palantir Technologies (PLTR) investors missed, William Blair analyst Kamil Mielczarek tells investors in a research note. Fast Radius is one of the 21 publicly traded companies for which Palantir provided PIPE equity funding in connection with the recipients of the funding signing multiyear software license agreements with Palantir, says the analyst. Mielczarek sees the potential that Fast Radius's estimated $9M annual revenue contribution goes away if the company stops paying Palantir. Beyond Fast Radius, there is the potential for downside pressure if other strategic investments falter, writes the analyst. Mielczarek expects Palantir shares to trend lower over the next 12 months on growth and margin pressure, with potential downside to $5 to $6 per share. The analyst keeps an Underperform rating on the name.
