About six weeks ago, one of our TechStars teams this summer called J-Squared Media launched the Sticky Notes Facebook app. Sticky Notes took off like a rocket and has just crossed the one million user mark today. This has made J-Squared Media immediately profitable - they’ve signed interesting ad deals with several ad networks and it’s paying off for them quite nicely.
