History of Reddit!

Hi everyone!

Alright so last post I explained to you guys why I chose to create a blog about reddit. But today I though I would share history about the site as well as some other really cool info.

So to get started reddit was created in 2005 by two graduates of the University of Virginia and was created in Medford, Massachusetts. The original founders of reddit were Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian however many people joined their team after that! On October 31st, 2006 Condè Nast Publications acquired reddit and moved the team to San Francisco. In July 2010 reddit had a large traffic growth and after that the creators created an option called Reddit Gold, a membership where you paid for more access to different items.

And on September 6th, 2011 reddit became operationally independent of Condè Nast Publications.

Well there you go kids! Now go enjoy reddit :)
