Just a quick note to illustrate something from yesteday's post. I'm pretty sure I mentioned our "cool loft spaces" -- not just idle chatter. Here's a pretty good shot of our main space. You so wish you work here. (Have I mentioned that we get free coffee, too?)

DigitalGrit: Life on Main Street
Part of what makes DG so cool is our office space. We don't just have a 20,000 square feet of cubes -- no sir, we shy away from the prarie dog lifestyle.
Instead, we have a campus-type setting occupying several spaces along Main Street in good ol' Boonton, NJ. (Yes, we're well aware that "Boonton" sounds suspiciously like "Boondocks", but we assure you -- this is a pretty darned cool place to be.)
What's cool about it? For one thing, instead of just taking an elevator to meet your co-workers, we actually have to hit scenic Main Street to get from one funky loft area to another. So you can grab a coffee and a paper at the cafe between meetings (time permitting, of
course) and you're forced to get some fresh air from time to time.
Of course, this also means that you may have to take your coat or an umbrella to get to a meeting in another department...but it also means you can leave your car parked all day and still have a choice of Thai, Mexican, Italian or Chinese for lunch.
