RIP, Phil Goldman
This is a shocker. Anti-spam company Mailblocks founder and CEO Phil Goldman died suddenly of as yet unknown natural causes on Christmas Day. He was only 39. I worked with Phil at Apple Computer systems software in the late 80s, when I was doing CD-ROM and multimedia stuff and he was a key member of the team on Multifinder aka 'Twitcher' aka System 6.0. He later went on to fame and fortune, founding WebTV along with fellow Apple vets Steve Perlman and Bruce Leak. I last saw him at the AlwaysOn conference a few months back, and he looked in great shape. He leaves a wife and two young children, and my thoughts and sympathies are with them.
