Bre Pettis formerly produced a show for Make Magazine, does field reports for Rocketboom and is now working for Etsy.

Today I went out to Brooklyn to see Pettis’ new office and studio. Etsy is a place where you can buy and sell things you make or want to make online. I just registered and have to say it’s one of my new favorite websites.

Interaction on the web is self perpetuating and the formula of success.

Hey that Etsy is really a cool and swagtastic site. I’ve been buying craps, oops, I mean crafts from there for nearly three years. It’s great to see a familiar internet persona like Mr. Pettis on board there. Now if someone were selling Bre Pettis imitation clip-on sideburns: I’d definitely order a set!

@Michael_A_Dixon, yeah right… I don’t know about the sideburns. lol.

Bre is teh bomb, as is Etsy. Bre and the the ladies of Etsy helped me screenprint a jacket there last year. Nice to see the place again! Good piece Sarah.

I’m making sketches of the bathing suit I want to have made via Etsy. They have the alchemy project which is awesome.
