Anybody notice the company try to poach the 37signals reference in the ad box down below directions. How effective was that ad?

That’s a very nice touch : ). At work we try to do similar things to our intranet - every year we make silly styles/icons for April Fools, Valentine’s Day, etc.

“although he’s a bit verbose — something he’ll have to work on”
Sounds like the guy was just going that extra mile to impress you. He shouldn’t be called out for that.

agree w/mason. the “verbose” comment is yucky. made me click on the link in hopes it would be seriously clipped so i’d know you were joking. it’s way tmi about your employer/employee relationship. delighted to meet him, read his stuff, hear how you found him – but keep the upgradables internal, please. boundaries.
