I also remember the post that originated imgur... because I was addicted to reddit back then. The founder called imgur a "gift to reddit"... http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/7zlyd/my_gift_to...

Like most redditors I was shocked when I couldn't use my karma to buy stake in imgur. After becoming depressed that imgur was not really a "gift", I quit reddit, and decided to found a startup. And now I'm here. So thank you for that imgur.

I'd be surprised if many readers know what the hell you're talking about.

And yet, 'MrGrim' is still using reddit, namely this nice post last week: "I'm finally going to build the computer of my dreams" http://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/1mjbvl/build_ready...

Nice.

It's almost as if reddit karma is totally meaningless!
