Etsy
We should have written this Pick months ago. But we're incapable of coming near Etsy without abandoning all sense of time, obligation, and, let's face it, fiscal responsibility. Forget any other web phenom you've heard about recently, the Greatest Current Thing is Etsy. Here, creators and lovers of fine (and funky) handcrafted items buy and sell a wide variety of goods. Tote bags, artists' books, photographs, knitted wear, collage work, jewelry, ceramics, polymer beasties, they're all here, plus much, much more. Surely, we've already lost readers to the addictive, ebullient site, but for those of you still with us: Begin with the main showcase, check in with the featured seller, experience the space-craft continuum with the "time machine," and perhaps take a joyful romp through the "shop by color" section. And then, let your fancy guide you. You've entered the joyous realm of Etsy.
