eBay Homepage Sprint
Share
A story about how Jack Abraham convinced a team to drop everything and fly to Sydney to build eBay's new homepage feed in just two weeks.
"I convinced the CEO to let me do something on a Friday night. I convinced 6 people to cancel their next 2 weeks, fly with me to Sydney Australia, rent an Airbnb, and turn it into a hacker house. We built the entire thing in 2 weeks.
It ended up becoming the feed and the homepage of eBay, and 130,000,000 people were using it 9 months later as the primary discovery mechanism on the site."
