LikeALittle is an anonymous social network that facilitates flirting on college campuses, blending short messages with an anonymous identity layer. Users are assigned a random fruit-name per thread (a new fruit for each new thread) to sustain conversations while remaining anonymous. The product includes moderation tools to remove sexually explicit and offensive posts and the team describes the service as a “flirting‑facilitator platform.” The startup attracted rapid traction — a Hacker News thread reported 20 million pageviews in six weeks and growth of over 1 million pageviews per day. The team includes former Googlers and Microsoft employees Evan Reas, Prasanna Sankaranarayanan and Shubham Mittal, and the company emerged from Y Combinator’s Winter ’11 batch. Financially, LikeALittle raised $1 million at a $10 million valuation and has used some of the capital to acquire the domain lal.com.
