I'm in the middle of a chocolate blog outreach campaign for a client, and I came across a chocolate contest that's only eligible to UK residents. If I win, I'm going to name the Carson Crew as the lucky recipients. They announce in 2 weeks. I'll e-mail you if I (we) win. The team likes chocolate, don't they? BTW, not many people have entered, so we stand a pretty good chance of winning. Good luck! bk Hey Ryan,

Let us know how BrightMix gets on. Brian - Great to hear from you mate. That's so exciting that you're up to 30 people on the team! I'm sure I could learn a lot from you :) Kevin - Thanks for the kind words. Let us know how BrightMix gets on.

I know it can be a bit nerve-wracking to add staff (Viget just cracked the 30 mark) but it's certainly a blast when you find great people -- looks like you have. Keep having fun with it!

My Cofounder and myself run BrightMix, a small web development shop out in the middle of the US. We've always enjoyed reading the Carsonified blog, and we really dig the company atmosphere that you guy's bolster. In fact, we're aiming to create a similarly awesome and fun work environment for our employees. Thanks for the inspiration, Carsonified, and keep up the great work!!

Sometimes they just need a bit of peace and quiet to get things done, so that's a great reason to work from home. On the whole, though, I believe its <em>very</em> important for everyone to be in the office. There are so many spur-of-the-moment good things that happen by just being together physically. Thanks for the comments on the Carsonified Chalkboard. We love it too :) - Ryan Hey Brad,

But what your thoughts on Remote Worker Environments (RME - not sure if that's real, I may have just made it up)? The reason I ask, is because although it may not be true, it seems as though most people seem to work right out of the Bath, UK office. I realize some may work out of their home offices on certain days, however you seem like the type of company / group that loves to live on the edge of technology and environments. Is living in the UK a very important aspect when considering a new employee, or is it just by chance that you found the right people right nearby? BTW, I LOVE the Chalkboard wall! Any new office photos coming soon to a flickr account near you? Ryan,

A very nice bunch of people they are too. Congrats to the new recruits - hope it's a great year!
