About Jonah

Jonah Keegan is an internet entrepreneur. He's worked for a few startups and tried his hand with a few of his own. More importantly, he's a DIT (Dad-In-Training) with his first young'un on the way. He feels lucky to have lots of aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents on hand for baby-raising tips, and wants them all to know that a contribution to baby's college fund earns them each one month on the midnight-to-8am DO NOT CALL list.
