I've said it many times before, but man, the best part of this job is definitely working with the great people here. After a few weeks of working on a key feature we realized what we had originally envisioned wasn't going to be quite enough to do what we wanted. At first I was worried it was going to become a big deal but after a little brainstorming by the people involved we came up with a very nice way of extending the system to push it over the top. Suddenly from angst to excitement in the span of an hour! It's such a huge asset to have so many folks on the team who are pro-active about solving problems and undaunted about doing whatever it takes to make a feature really great.
Today one of the programmers brought in a "Mosquito", this little remote controlled 2-bladed helicopter thingy. It quickly took the office by storm and everyone was discussing getting one for themselves, tricking them out, making them fight, etc. Fun to watch. :)
Speaking of fun things, keep your eyes peeled (ouch!) for something very cool happening quite soon....
