Keeping with the theme of my blog, I decided to look up the founders with some of the companies I know of. I was excited to find out that some of the most well known startups/websites are led by young and driven people. Some of these people you probably know of already, while some, probably not. Here’s a list:

• Sam Altman, 22 - Loopt
• Rob Calin, 28 - Etsy
• Garrett Camp, 29 - StumbleUpon, acquired by eBay for $75 million.
• Drew Houston, 25 - Dropbox
• Richard Jones, 26 - last.fm
• Matt Mullenweg, 24 - Wordpress
• Aaron Patzer, 27 - Mint
• Jia Shen 28, RockYou
• Bret Taylor, 27 and Jim Norris, 26 - FriendFeed
• Sam Tarantino, 21, and Josh Greenberg, 21 - Grooveshark
• David Uevitch, 26 - OpenDNS
• Mark Zuckerberg, 24 - Facebook (I know, he shouldn’t be on the list)

I didn’t really look through the YCombinator list, but most of them are probably in their twenty’s. If you know a few more, comment me.
