| December 7, 2007 |  View for printing |
Pete Parsons, the former general manager at Bungie Studios, maker of the popular "Halo" game franchise, has landed about $1 million in angel financing for a new Bellevue startup called Fyreball https://www.fyreball.com/user/login .
Parsons, who left Bungie earlier this year and founded Fyreball in March, isn't saying much about the product direction of the startup. But the 42-year-old did confirm that it is building an alternative to e-mail that allows users to track messages and discussions as they circulate around the Web. That means a Fyreball user could trace who viewed, commented on or forwarded a funny video, a scientific report or other digital content.
