By the way, doesn't it seem that PayPal, the online payments company that was bought by eBay for billions, is a success that has an amazing number of fathers? It's almost as though every new company we discover is...

started by somebody who founded or at least was a pioneer at PayPal. So YouTube says it was founded by "early commerce pioneers" from PayPal. And of course it is being funded by Roelof Botha, Sequoia Capital partner and former CFO of PayPal.

Yesterday, we wrote about Yelp, which is one of three companies incubated by Max Levchin, co-founder PayPal. Then you've got LinkedIn's Reid Hoffman, who was "in charge of all business relationships" at PayPal. LinkedIn is also funded by Sequoia, where another leading partner Michael Moritz was a main backer of PayPal. You've got the Founders Fund, which was launched by three PayPal co-founders. And this list is just off the top of our head....How many other PayPal fathers are running around? Have we missed any?
