Here, hold these brackets and pretend to be a line of code!

I spent the last two days at Microsoft’s product fair, an employee-only event where all the different product groups got to show off their various stuffs. My team (Staffing Marketing, our unofficial motto being: It’s cool to work at The Soft!) was there giving away shwag and and talking to folks about all our various projects like View<myWorld> and Jobsblog and Microspotting.

I took a few photos of people pretending to be the code by standing in a pair of brackets. If you spot yourself in any of these pictures, get in touch! I’ll get you a Microspotting tee. :)

Several people wanted to know where the back-slash was. Har har, people. I said they'd get the back-slash during their exit interview.

I need to get to main campus more often–there’s a Ferris Wheel for cryin out loud. That beats my hamster wheel any day.
