Today we have a very special guest on. He founded a company at the dawn of the internet age, and it is still going strong, celebrating its 25 anniversary. So we are going to talk with him about his journey, so stay tuned.
Hey everybody, this is Chris Brandt here with another FUTR podcast.
I have with me Jake Nickell, he and Jacob DeHart started Threadless in 2000 in Jake's apartment as a T-shirt design competition that has now grown into an online community of artists where designs are created by and chosen by an online community. It was a 2006 Wired article about Threadless that coined the term crowdsourcing.
So we are going to talk with Jake about how Threadless has evolved and how the Internet has changed the world over the last 25 years.
