  Is that the girl he almost didn't found reddit because of: http://cache.valleywag.com/assets/resources/2007/11/Huffman.jpg http://cache.valleywag.com/assets/resources/2007/11/Huffman.... ...or is that a post-aquisition upgrade? (excuse me if I have my founders confused.) Also check out the kiwi in the middle of the above: http://discuss.joelonsoftware.com/default.asp http://discuss.joelonsoftware.com/default.asp

    When Steve and I started reddit, he was dating that same girl (now his fiancee). She was always very supportive of him/us, so I'm not sure where you got your data about him potentially not doing reddit because of her. And yes, I am indeed wearing a FogBugz Kiwi T-shirt. It was a gift from FogCreek and it's my second favorite shirt of all-time.

      Ohanian says it took several months to convince Huffman that "he didn't want to take the very appealing job close to his girlfriend back in Virginia, and to instead try living with me in near-poverty for some indefinite period of time." http://www.businessweek.com/smallbiz/content/sep2007/sb20070926_082638.htm http://www.businessweek.com/smallbiz/content/sep2007/sb20070...
