Trails.com to Close Seattle Office in Early 2009
The property was acquired by Demand Media in 2006 and the plan was to shut the office eventually, but it came sooner rather than later due to a lease issue, rather than the economy say those involved. Some of the 15 people in Seattle will be offered position at other locations. Much of the site will be supported from Santa Monica, HQ for Demand. The site, introduced to my by one of my students, allows hikers and bikers to share trails and image and stories from their adventures. The is doing well and making money.
