Uberguilds Bought By GuildCafe
GuildCafe.com has bought Portland-based Uberguilds. This is not a case of one rival buying another, rather Uberguilds is a network of sites devoted to online fantasy role playing games. GuildCafe powers such sites with social networking software and got to know Uberguilds this way. GuildCafe is funded by IDG Ventures Boston while Uberguilds was bootstrapped.
Uberguilds was founded in June 2005 by former US Army SPC Johnathan Findlay.
