We’re happy to welcome Josh Antonishen to Austin today, where he’ll be joining our web development team. He’s an avid runner, which makes us all feel like going to the gym, right now.

One of our iOS guys, @moltman, joins the sea of curious Apple developers at WWDC today. If there's a LOLcat meetup, you'll find him there.

A warm (and slightly belated) welcome to @shaundubs, who joined our tech team last week with a boatload of experience under his belt.

Shaun Dubuque joined our tech team this week. He brings with him over a decade of development experience, a lifetime living in Austin, and a keen interest in robotics. Looks like we’ll get along just fine.
