Biography

Albert Lai is the Founder of BubbleShare, an online website to share photos and tell stories. Users can immediately create slideshows or albums without registration and narrate their photos with their own voice right inside their Web browser. He has been involved in founding and launching various start-up companies over his career in the field of educational software, electronic marketing, online publishing, e-commerce, peer-to-peer software, and commercialization of alien technologies.

Albert first founded MyDesktop, which became the largest technology focused media network in Canada by 1999. After selling MyDesktop that year, he founded BuyBuddy, an online comparison shopping engine. He then moved onto IdleAgent that was founded on the premise that there were vast amounts of storage capacity going unused, and that there was a commercial opportunity to bring some far ranging research down to a real world backup application level in order to aggregate and virtualize this unused capacity.
