Synapse Life Sold for $60K

Synapse Life got acquired for $60,000 on ebay, yet another web 2.0 company sold on auction, the most famous sale on ebay was kiko.com.

The latest eBayquisition: SynapseLife, a suite of web-based applications that are available on your mobile phone, sold for $60K on eBay in the last few hours. The founders are now switching their focus to Down2Night, a much sexier social app that will soon have integration with MySpace.

SynapseLife was well-made, but a little dull - we’re looking forward to what they’ll serve up now they’re thinking about the social space.
