The Group Behind Groupon

Posted by mollyparr

This morning Rich and I got ourselves a dinner at one of his favorite restaurants for half price. And all I did this was read the daily Groupon deal that came to my inbox. I knew Groupon was getting big when I heard the anti-report on Marketplace a few weeks ago, but I had no idea it was the fastest growing company in Web history until I read today’s Forbes cover story. Personally, I love this new world of Group Coupons. For me, it’s a way to enjoy a nice meal that I otherwise wouldn’t have been able to enjoy. And for the restaurant, it’s great publicity.
