Congrats to the Etsy team. Their engineering blog "Code as Craft" is an excellent resource for startups.

Yay! Congrats to Etsy. (I was one of the early investors.)

tl;dr (actually it's not 'too long' but the quoted part below is the only instance in the article where the author speaks of international expansion)

"The new money, he said, would help Etsy expand, particularly in other countries. His plan is to hire community managers and open offices in countries where Etsy thinks it can gain a viable footprint. He has his eye on Australia and Canada, among other markets."

My accounting teacher is the head of accounting for Etsy (baruch college NYC). They are really doing some awesome stuff.
