1. This week, we: Moved into our new office space Hired an intern Worked our butts off for our clients AND created a site for a new upcoming XOXCO product - SendTab! I am super proud of the company we are building.  Now that we are in a real office, with a real employee, it feels like we are really going places. I am really surprised at how satisfying it is to have our intern working on stuff while I’m working on other things - namely the things I don’t want to do.   I am now at least 1.5x more productive! Our office is literally in the middle of a local TV station’s office, so all around us are video editors and creative folks.  It is loud and wacky.  This evening, they are hosting a party featuring a heavy metal band and parking lot wrestling! I have a feeling that my work life is about to get a lot more interesting.

This is Ben Brown's blog about technology, community, and life in Austin, TX.

I run XOXCO, a boutique product development firm. We mostly make websites for Finland.

Right now, I am working on a pixel drawing app for the iPad called Make Pixel Art, hence I am posting tons of pixel drawings! I also contribute to Bitnauts. Prepare yourself for the low rez revolution.

I have been posting to my personal website since 1995!
