Gifshot was originally created during a Yahoo Sports team hackathon. The hackathon project allowed Yahoo Fantasy users to talk "smack" to other league members, by creating and publishing funny animated GIFs of themselves. After testing this feature internally, we soon learned what the internet has known for over 25 years; animated GIFs are fun.
