My first post for Volano (or any blog for that matter) was about Office Space. Rod and I have been looking for space for about a year now and we have finally, yes finally signed a lease. The building is two blocks south of where we currently are, which makes moving not so bad as long as we can roll the server rack down the street.
We are moving between May 1st and May 15th and there are a lot of things to get lined up before then: paint colors, business cards, phone and internet switch over, how to move the bar and should we stock it differently in the new space. Many important things.
Our new space is on the 8th floor of the Exchange building and the landlord who is also in the building is the AIM Institute. AIM has been great to work with so far and should be a thousand times better than a random from Alaska (nothing against Alaskans, just out-of-town developers).

Many of us remember the grade school game Telephone. It was funny to see how a simple message would get garbled as it was passed along from person to person. But it’s not as funny when that message is a critical business requirement that will be turned into software that will power your business. Yet, […]
