Erly Indications Point to Something Big

The team who ran tech at Hulu is launching new social tech company.

Not a single word has been spoken publicly by anyone at Erly, the new Palo Alto-based social tech startup founded by Kleiner Perkins partner Eric Feng, but early reports indicate the company has some established talent behind it.

The company, whose tag line is "your life, simply interesting," has reportedly brought in Eugene Wei and Andrew Lin, who ran Product and Engineering at Hulu, respectively. Feng himself was founding CTO of Hulu.

The company currently has eight team members in Palo Alto in New York, according to TechCrunch, and will be rolling out a new product in the coming weeks.
