  • I read some stuff about Jeff, I thought he stepped down? Maybe I need to read more.

  • This question appears to be off-topic because it is about other people's private business.

  • I just want to know the reason of my question getting this much anonymous downvotes at least give the reason as comment.

  • @RajeshPaul Only those who did it could say. And clearly they haven't said. All I can guess is this is likely searchable info and didn't need a question...

    I didn't downvote but like @James said, you could find this by searching in Google or taking a look in the About page of Stack Exchange main site. James, Jeff did step down but he's still one the people who founded Stack Exchange.

  • I simply thought one thing- If I have to know about a person a very basic info **should I ask him or someone else**??? This situation is analogous to what I just did.

  • @RajeshPaul fair point but still, one is expected to do some research even here on Meta before posting. :)

Taken from Stack Exchange About page:

Where did Stack Exchange come from?

In 2008, Jeff Atwood and Joel Spolsky created a site called Stack Overflow and brought together millions of computer programmers from around the world to help each other with detailed technical questions.
