The idea of creating such a site came to Florio after watching the 3-hour movie King Kong. Another two years, he nurtured the idea, thinking through the project site in Flash / platform. In the spring of 2008 he began work immediately on the development site RunPee, and by August he finished the project.
Attendance at the site was small - 10-15 people a day. But in May, already this year about the project mentioned by Leo Laporte on his show, and traffic immediately increased up to 350 people a day. About the project began to speak. About him, and heard Dave Barry, who invited Florio on his show on May 26. After the show site visitors increased to 30,000 a day!
Florio is now working on the mobile and iPhone version of its site. According to him. Mobile version will be available in July.
Florio hopes to earn from the site enough to cover all expenses with warriors and throw underworking freelancer to develop Flash / platforms.
