The real question being why did they have 178 employees? It sounds almost like they were following the Digg engineering approach rather then Reddit's.

- adventured 13y agoThe number of people with "brand" in their title is amazing. Is that a fancy title for someone who interacts with the tumblr community? I noticed they're located all over the place.
- toble 13y agoIn ad sales lingo, 'brand' is pay per view or sponsorship advertising. These people will be looking after the big clients, think music labels, movie studios, TV networks...
- Brajeshwar 13y agoHey, do you have a link/url to the Reddit's Engineering Approach article/post. I'd very much like to read it. Thanks.
- boyter 13y agoSorry I don't. That comment was based on knowing the history of both of them. I believe that Digg had something like 80 employees vs reddit's 5 or so. That's based on from memory. Interviews with Owen Byrne (Mixergy), Kevin Rose (I think it was mentioned on TWiT when he was on), and places like HighScalibility are where I got those basic numbers. I wish I could point you at some better sources but that's the best I can remember sorry.
