App.net Sheds Full-Time Employees, Still “Self-Sustaining”
App.net, the experimental, subscription-based social network, has announced that, while it’s not closing its doors, its first round of renewals were not enough to retain full-time employees, including founders Dalton Caldwell and Bryan Berg. The pair claim that despite no longer being able to afford employees, “App.net will continue to operate normally on an indefinite basis.”
