“I had hippie parents, and I found it difficult to figure out how to re...” — Stewart Butterfield Quote

I had hippie parents, and I found it difficult to figure out how to rebel against them.

I rarely in a working day go more than 10 minutes without looking at Slack.

We sent our user research team out to sit with customers for periods of time and get some insight into how Slack is working. We also get tens of thousands of points of contact via Twitter and our customer support ticketing system every month and can synthesize those results.

People sometimes forget how early Flickr came. Facebook didn't add photo sharing till a year after Flickr was acquired by Yahoo.

When I was eight, a hippie guy taught me how to meditate and gave me this scarf I was supposed to wear when I meditated. I still have it; it's probably one of the items that mean most to me.

There's a lot of hippie vibe in my family.

I was a little too young to be a hippie.

I was raised with hippie parents, so I get down with the positive. I don't pay attention to the negative.

The hippie movement politicized my generation. When it ended, we all started looking back at our own history, looking, in my case, for motives of rebellion.
