Even though deal-sharing site Slickdeals has been around for more than a decade, CEO Bryant Quan says it's still pretty much in startup mode.

With more than a 100 million page views every month and only 20 full-time employees, there's a ratio of 5 million customers to one employee, which means Slickdeals had to build a team flexible enough to wear many hats and make decisions independently.

It is one thing to say the information is publicly available. It is quite another to gather and post it in an easily accessible form. I'm amazed it hasn't been redacted yet. I'm actually a bit impressed it has been allowed to remain.

I wouldn't eat any of "schooby's cookies" that mysteriously appeared in your mailbox anytime soon though boltman2007. Evillaugh
