MongoSF follow-up and contest winners

Thanks for stopping by and meeting the Bizo engineering team at MongoSF. We had a great time meeting everyone at the conference and the after-party. Stay in touch! As part of our conference sponsorship, we were able to include a small card in the conference bags. We are hiring, so we decided to use the space to talk a bit about the engineering team. On the back of the card, we included a small puzzle (click though for the full version): If you successfully completed the puzzle, you landed here, with a chance to enter some pirate jokes and win an Amazon gift card. Congratulations to the winners:
  • Y. Wayne H.
  • Huy H.
  • Dan N.
Like I said, we are hiring! We're looking for smart, motivated people who get stuff done. To learn more about the team, check out our mini engineering team site. If you would like to talk more, please get in touch! Finally, here are some of our favorite pirate jokes from the contest:
How does a pirate do calculus?
By taking a derivative with respect to Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
Where is the hidden treasure map of Silicon Valley?
Legend has it that Captain Zukarrrrburg hides it in his Subvarrrrsion Reparrrrsitory ol' matey!
