LA Weekly has a great article on IMDB and
the story of how it got started.
IMDB is a subsidiary of the empire
known as Amazon.com but is allowed to run independently. One would
like to think that IMDB sprang from
nowhere however it took 5 years before they started going commercial.
That’s 5 years doing this project on top of whatever else they were
doing.
Now if they could only get some more Asian correspondants to cover
Asian movies in more detail.
