Stewart Butterfield’s Summary

Entrepreneur, designer & technologist. See the internet at its most significant as a medium for human communication and interaction. Founded Ludicorp (Latin, roughly, for "body of play") with the mission of creating new possibilities for communication and expression through play. Ended up with Flickr instead, but that worked too :)
