"In 1997, Mark started ONElist, a free Internet email list service. The service was the category leader from the beginning and in November 1999, ONElist acquired eGroups, its main competition. Yahoo acquired the resulting company, renamed eGroups, in June 2000 and the service is now called Yahoo Groups.
In 2003, Mark started Bloglines, a free web-based news aggregation service. Bloglines is the most popular news aggregator on the Internet, was named one of Time Magazine's Top 50 Web Sites for 2004, and was named the Best Blog/Feed Search Engine by the Search Engine Watch Awards in 2005. In February, 2005, Bloglines was acquired by ask jeeves.
