We just got Sparkling Yerba Mate in the office…
This is more or less how my morning went…
Oh, it’s Friday? Ho hum.
Oh, what is this new Sparkling Yerba Mate tea in the fridge?!?
I’M THE KING OF THE WORLD!!!!!!!!
It’s been fun!
Hey folks,
Today is my last day at gdgt. It’s hard to believe that I joined the team almost 3 years ago. Time flies when you’re having fun! It’s been a wild ride, but it’s time for me to pursue some new opportunities in 2012!
I want to thank the gdgt community for making my job an absolute blast and helping create something awesome! It’s been a fun experience chatting with everyone on gdgt, on Twitter, and even in person at our gdgt live events. I’ve met a countless number of great people, and for that, I’m super thankful.
Thanks for the fun times and happy memories!
Until next time,
-Dave
According to Foursquare, I’ve been to more airports than bars.
According to Foursquare, as far as the last 6 months are concerned, I’ve been to more unique airports (11!) than bars (10). And even more unique coffee shops (13) + cafés (11).
Is this what being a grownup is like?

We’re hard at work, launching the next version of gdgt! (It’s been crazy. We’re at about 19 straight hours of cranking on this right now.)
The sign really ties the office together

Boxes and boxes of shwag sitting at gdgt HQ in San Francisco prior to tomorrow’s gdgt live in San Francisco event at the SFDC Galleria (from 7pm – 11pm). Make sure to come hang out with us!
What a tough crowd
Via our internal team chat this morning at work. You think there’d be more Project Runway fans around, since we all appreciate good design here.
Civ V and OS X – A mark of desperation
I’m currently somewhere over New York state, flying Virgin America back from Boston (where we had our gdgt live event last night). I only brought my iPad with me on this trip. Which is painful, because Civilization V is currently out!
So, I wanted to see if it was even possible to play. Are you ready for this mark of desperation?
Civ V running on Windows 7. In a Parallels for OS X virtual machine. Via a VNC client on my iPhone. What?! So, what happened? Screen shots below!
