wtf?
this is the personal blog of Alexis [kn0thing] Ohanian, so I won't clutter our reddit dev blog. I started reddit with Steve Huffman back in June 05 and also happen to be responsible for the site's alien mascot (pictured above).
This blog used to be a glimpse into web 2.0 startup life, but now that we've sold out, it's an assortment of design/startup/geek-related things.
