Giving stuff away: Update

As I wrote previously, we ordered a bunch of useless stuff to give away at the WWDC.  The memory sticks came right on time, but the pens came too late.  Total expense ~$1000.

Was it worth it?  Well, we hired two kick ass interns as a result (Dustin Bachrach and David Keck).  I’m not sure their decision to join us was based on the cool junk we give away as much as it was Jason and Chad’s charm and our admittedly kick ass product ;-) but the point is, the conference was an awesome opportunity to find great talent and we did.  Dustin and Dave kick ass and I’m really looking forward to having them work with us for a long time to come.
