How inspiring! Thank you so much for explaining the investment publicly with all if it's possible impacts. I'm excited to see Etsy grow, (and also excited to watch my business grow right along with it!) Etsy has changed my life radically. Two years ago when I joined, I never expected to have the success and positive experiences that I've had. Thank you for building a platform that helps artists/crafters/artisans make a living! xoxoxo!

From article: Etsy's First Five Years

I have felt for awhile now that etsy is on the verge of becoming as big a part of the culture as ebay. That's one reason I'm glad we're here. Another reason is that etsy is really, to my mind, a movement of independence, offering the opportunity to earn a living outside typical business structures. I'm glad etsy has chosen this path.
