Wanting to be the Facebook for kids under the age of 13 is an ambitious target for any startup, so it helps to have some experienced hands on deck.
Everloop, a social media space targeting tweens and younger, followed up on a $3.1M fundraising effort by hiring new executives from Disney, AOL Time Warner and Nickelodeon.
Sandra Barger, former Disney senior vice president at Disney, was named Everloop's chief marketing officer. AOL Time Warner vet Tobin Trevarthen joins as vice president of business development. And Alan Goodman, who developed the famous MTV logo and helped launch the network, will come on board as a communications consultant.
The startup intends to put more control in the hands of parents than Facebook and other social media sites.
