Reserved for who is Jeff Ownby.

Maybe, just maybe, I can make a connection between him and Sonny Vleisides prior to their partnership at BFL. I know I can already do it with BFL's Bitcoin Development Fund and Sonny's Webspawner.com site, but I want to go further back in time.

Jeff`s In Costa Rica
I`m a little late posting this, but I`ve taken a groovy position as Marketing Director of an online gaming company. In order to take the position, I had to relocate to San Jose, Costa Rica. The family will be joining me in a couple of months for a few years of Central American living. So far, so good. It`s beautiful here. I`ll be posting some pictures soon.

Portfolio

I have been extremely fortunate to have gathered a unique cross-section of experience in my career, so far. In fact, I have already experienced more than most people will during their whole lives.

And I'm not even half finished !

During the last 4-5 years, I have been focusing my career on the Internet and Direct Marketing. I am totally taken by the web, and the possibilities it offers as a direct marketing channel.

One of the greatest things about this line of work is I have been able to express myself creatively while giving clients marketing solutions that are measuable and accountable.

It wasn't much after I had written this page that I started negotiating for a position as the Marketing Director for an online casino......in Costa Rica. I took the job and I'm here now.

Here are just a few of the great clients and projects I have been extremely lucky to have worked with:

I actually design websites too.

Complaints at Webspawner.com: http://www.000webhost.com/directory/reviews/webspawner.com

Quote
Webspawner Featured Review

webspawner.com is not a "real" hosting provider. This company provides hosting, but it's not similar to hosting packages offered by other directory_companies.

webspawner.com is nothing but online site builder, actually. You are not allowed to upload existing site here - just create new site using online step-by-step wizard and host it. Site is restricted to single page and has no scripting language or database support, only plain HTML. Forced ads (banner or popup) will be placed on your website, so webspawner.com is just useless junk.

We have no idea why someone would like to go with webspawner.com. It's just not worth to have a website that can not be moved to other hosting later (this company doesn't give even FTP access) and offers just online site building options. Any person (who can spend several minutes reading HTML basics) can create his own website (not just a single page) using normal website editor and host it elsewhere for better results.

We do not recommend webspawner.com in any way... unless you got too much free time in your hands and want to waste it with useless service.

Daniel, 12th of August, 2012
I've been with webspawner for three years now and everthing was working fine till they upgraded to a newer version on Msy 17, I cannot edit. and they won't answer e-mails to help me with this problem, and now my website is off the internet with a paid in full for a year and I still have 4more months to go. here is His first message.

Subject: Webspawner Hosting Issues

Dear Daniel,

By now you have probably noticed that the website has been down for
almost 27 hours. We are well aware of the situation and are working
as hard as we can to restore service.

Rest assured that once we are back up, your websites will be
unaffected. The issue involves a router at the main hosting
facility.

We have just recently acquired Webspawner.com and are working hard to
bring you a new website builder that will allow you to build even
nicer websites. Our expected launch date for the new system is March
27.

Included with this upgrade are new servers and a new hosting facility
that will assure that things like what happened today will never
happen again.

Thank you for your patience.

Sincerely,

Jeff ownby
Webspawner.com

Please reply PS: this is not right.

Sincerely,

But as of September, 2012, Sonny Vleisides was still president of Webspawner: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=110868.msg1207670#msg1207670

Quote
Hello, my name is Sonny Vleisides.  I've been involved in technology and libertarian focused ventures for most of my adult life.  I believe very strongly in freedom, honesty and personal responsibility.

I decided to drop university studies at UMKC back in 1991.  My mother wasn't very happy about it, but with youthful ambition and no sense, I set out to travel the world instead.  I've lived in Russia, Indonesia, Latin America, Europe etc...  Mostly seeking opportunity while trying to learn what I could.  Along the way, libertarian ideals became more interesting than any other and looking back, it's clear that's the attraction that's pulled me through life from one focus to the next.  The internet was an exciting development.  I started webspawner.com in 1995.  It was my focus for many years.  Do a search for 'free webpages' on google.  I'm currently president of that company, not BFL.

Hello,

Thank you for your patience during our recent downtime. We had no warning ahead of time, so it was difficult to get information to you in a timely matter. It was unfortunate and frankly, unacceptable. We are commited to providing much better service than that.

As you may have heard, we recently acquired Webspawner from Art who is moving on to other ventures. Good luck, Art.

With the new ownership comes an exciting announcement. On March 27th (launch date as of now) we are moving everyone into a new website and new website builder that will allow you to create a great, modern-looking website.

Here are a few sneak peaks (click the links):

The new logo is here:



You can also see the new logo on our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/webspawner

Please like us while you are there so we can keep you up to date on things.

Here are some sample Webspawner templates (themes):


(click to enlarge)

Free accounts will have these features:

Choose from 10 website themes
Unlimited storage
And here is a short list of the features available to you in the new $4.99 per month website builder:

Choose from hundreds of website themes
Upload your logo
Unlimited storage
Add Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest buttons to your site
A free blog
Pull Facebook and Twitter feeds into your blog
Add your own video or choose from Youtube, Hulu, and Google Video
Google maps
Custom contact forms
A new, improved, modern photo gallery
Instant Paypal button
$50 in Google ad words credit
And for businesses, we will have available at higher cost:

Mobile version of site
Facebook page creator
Google Places integration
Listing with Localeze
just to name a few.

For all current enhanced account members, starting on April 1, we will turn off billing and move you to the $9.99 per month website level for free to see if you like it.

If you do, you can stay there. If you prefer, you can move back down to the $4.99 level with more features than you currently have. Everyone is getting 1 MONTH FREE!

Again, thanks for your patience. You're going to love the new site.

Thanks

Quote
Sonny Chris Vleisides, who pled guilty to one count of mail fraud in 2010 (PDF) for being involved in an international lottery scam, is an executive at BFL. Jeff Ownby, vice president of marketing and e-commerce at BFL, told Ars that Vleisides is the “lead product developer—he’s the guy who dreams up the projects," though he declined to provide more details beyond that. By Vleisides’ own account on a Bitcoin forum, he’s the president of a hosting company called Webspawner.com—but it's not clear if he has a background in electrical engineering or hardware design.

Quote
BFL didn’t make that target, and as such, it said it donated 1,000 BTC to the Bitcoin Development Fund (BDF). However, the BDF appears to have been created in May 2013 and provides no documentation that it is, in fact, a bona fide charity or nonprofit organization. Its website lists no actual people, street addresses, or phone numbers.

In fact, it turns out that BDF was actually started by Butterfly Labs' own employees—a fact disclosed nowhere on the BDF site. When Ars reached out to the only e-mail address listed on the site, the response that came back was from Jeff Ownby, the BFL vice president.

"We initially set up this site for the purpose of distributing the 1,000 BTC that BFL committed to donate," Ownby told Ars. "We set it up like this because we think there is an opportunity to involve other BTC businesses in helping fund projects and charities in the future.

Damn dude, this is crazy! Good work if this is all true...that part about the BDF is quite disturbing.

I can't wait for all these fucks to be indicted on criminal charges, or if some customer goes ape shit on the BFL facility with everyone in it, I don't think I could blame them.

Update! — We have launched a New Money Systems Board!
 
Update — Trace Mayer, an early bitcoin proponent and Lifeboat Foundation Economics board member, says “The Lifeboat Foundation is a good organization bringing together some of the brightest minds from many disciplines to act as guardians of the human race. But what good is collaboration without an ability, particularly a financial ability, to implement solutions? With this bitcoin endowment fund any donations made today enable the Lifeboat Foundation to be the beneficiary of the massive wealth transfer benefiting holders of bitcoins and practically that means an increased financial ability stored in a censorship-resistant currency to implement solutions to vexing existential threats to humanity.”
 
Update — Our Brian Cartmell will match the next 500 BTC in donations (as long as they are made by the end of 2013).
 
Lifeboat Foundation has launched the world’s first bitcoin endowment fund! Donate to bitcoin address 1Lifeboa1zJ7xJabHzVDmnsgqZ11m6LWL5
 
While the Lifeboat Foundation was founded in the 21st century, until recently it was mainly funded using 20th century money, basically various types of monies backed by governments. Thanks to the encouragement of some of our larger donors we are now working to have the majority of our funding come from 21st century money — money backed not by governments but by algorithms. The 21st century money Lifeboat is currently focused on is bitcoins.
 
Historically government backed money has done a poor job in holding its .value. For example, the U.S. dollar has lost over 96% of its value since it was first issued. Many promote the idea of trading rocks (gold and silver) instead but this Bronze Age idea has various drawbacks including portability when local governments decide to confiscate it. As a futuristic organization, we should be promoting 21st century money and now we are!
 
Crypto-currencies have many advantages over old-fashioned government-backed money. For example they enable transparency, enabling Lifeboat to show that our endowment monies are stored in these wallets: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. They also allow people in less developed countries to have access to the rest of the world. For example, PayPal alone blocks access to over 60 countries, and many credit card companies have similar restrictions. Some are blocked for political reasons, some because of higher fraud rates, and some for other financial reasons. Whatever the reason, we don’t think a human being from Haiti, Ethiopia, or Kenya should have diminished access to the world because of payment issues they can’t control. Our goal is to enable people, not block them.
 
 The March 2013 EU–IMF grab of about 50% of large bank accounts in Cyprus that held government-backed money was the key event that caused the Lifeboat Foundation to feel that the time for 21st century money was here. (We launched our endowment fund shortly after the Cyprus crisis began.)
 
Any bitcoins donated anywhere on the Lifeboat site will be added to our bitcoin endowment fund. Any non-bitcoin donations made on this page will be used to either buy bitcoin mining equipment or bitcoins. Learn what we have spent non-bitcoin donations on so far!
 
If you donate $25 or more you are eligible for a copy of our paperback book and/or our Kindle edition. If you donate $100 or more you are eligible for a copy of our paperback autographed by the author with the inscription of your choice. (We will simply value bitcoin donations at the current weighted average value.)
 
Check the current Bitcoin value. Investigate bitcoin mining options. Learn about the Bitcoin Foundation. Read Bitcoin Magazine. Learn about the potential of bitcoins.
 
We would like to start a trend of nonprofits building endowment funds with bitcoins instead of just spending them all. Nonprofits could be using the deflationary power of bitcoins to build up their resources so they are in a better position to make a difference in the world. Help us launch this trend!

I find it pretty brizard that the guy who oversaw the registration of the trademark for Webspawner.com is on the Advisory Board of Lifeboat.

Take a look at this page and see if there's any other names you may be familiar with, for you may be surprised to see some of your favorites: http://lifeboat.com/ex/whats.new
