Whoa... I thought etsy was started by a grandma or something, LOL. Or at least a crafty stay at home mom! No way a B-A from Brooklyn!
PS I think it's pronounced eht-see but I like to say eeeet-see!
Interesting article! I also had a different image in my head of the person behind etsy!
Honestly, I had never given the "who" much thought! He looks like he's 12! Thanks for posting that, it was really interesting. I had no idea people have to pay per item to list and then pay a commission. Guess I never really thought about it, though. Thanks!
Interesting. Not what I pictured at all. He really does look like he's 12.
Wow! Thanks for posting. Who knew? It's a great business and $100M sold this year is very impressive for such a young site.
Wow, I don't know why, but I always assumed it was created by a crafty lady kind of like Martha Stewart!
I honestly never really thought about the creator of etsy-- and like the other bees-- I never would have guessed it was a young guy like him!
Very interesting :) Thanks for sharing!
what?! That's the creator of Etsy?! I totally never would have guessed!
Etsy is one of those ideas that I kick myself for not coming up with first! Like the Twilight Saga, Eggbeaters and The Real World franchise... why doesn't my brain work that well!
Is it bad that I never imagined a granny to think of etsy. I always picked a young guy who grew up with a crafty mother and grandmother. I always figured that most grandmothers weren't tech savy enough.
