Ethan Zuckerman
Vice President of Research & Development

We refer to Ethan as Tripod's poster boy. He's got the classic Web-head look that photographers love — long hair, intense stare, crazysexy trousers, and a disdain for all that is preppy (Bo excepted). But Ethan's no new media snob — if you need help finding (and eating) the most bearable cheap sushi in whatever Godforsaken town you live in, he's your man. But beware: Our Supergeek also seems to have a cast-iron stomach.

Nick holds at least two distinctions within the company. First, he is our only long-hair who still has all his hair on top. Second, he is the only employee to leave law school for a job at Tripod. Nick claims that he doesn't miss the buzz of legalese, but we have noticed him intently studying a very different kind of bar at Mezze, the trendy bistro down the street.
