Rock?

As some of you may know, I spend a good amount of my free time on a garage-bandy-type project, where I play bass and help compose rocking epics of sweeping grandeur and horrific beauty (yes, it's that shitty).

As I have been asked to describe said project on several occasions, and as I feel that I lack the vocabulary to adequately relate our aforementioned flights of sonic fancy, I present to you a modest morsel of our metallic meanderings, Dystopia.

This is best listened to loudly in a stolen vehicle, driving through the jungle while avoiding the corrupt agents of a despotic regime. Or while petting puppies. It's that versatile. (but seriously, crank those headphones...)

Fresh-baked Croissant from Tartine Bakery

He comes in office and surprises us with presents occasionally. Today, he did it again! That famous, tasty, butterly, fresh-baked, croissant from Tartine in SF. Once you eat this croissant, you cannot forget. It is like eating best "Toro" (fatty tuna). It is a moment of happiness with this tendar texture...yummy.

See this color. You do not need anything else. This one piece and espresso will fill you up!

SNAP Mobile Surf Team

Yes. We have a home beach for SNAP Mobile Surf Team, the half moon bay! This time, we had surfers not only from SNAP Mobile but also N-Gage team.


9 am at Roosvelt beach at Halfmoon Bay. Beatiful and great beach for family gathering! This is south side. I see one surfer out there.

This is north end. You can see Jetty poit. The left end of piture is famous "Marvericks" point. Next time some of us will buy tickets ($200 to see competition on boat) and check out world-famous Marvericks competition.

Yes, there are SNAP Mobile Surf Team Mascot Girls. But borads say "N-Gage". Our next goal is to make "SNAP Mobile" surf baord...

Farewell @ Mars!

Whenever we have release completion, new big milestone completion, someone leaving or someone joining, we come to Mars Bar across our office. They have nice outside area to hang out as well as pool table to play. Nice Friday afternoon/evening beer/wine drinking!

Today we go together to see of James who is leaving for east coast.

Friday Lunch @ Mehfil

SNAP Mobile Team's monthly Friday lunch out spot is Indian restaurant, Mehfil, 10 blocks away from our office. Their naan is so tasty. Motorcycle is the best way to go there since finding parking spot is crazy in SF downtown.


Today, one of our team members and friend, James, is leaving for east coast. We had one last lunch together to celebrate his new departure!

Need some meditation?

Many of us do meditation and Yoga in our team. Maybe this is California thing...
Platform Manager found this free meditation class held in Sunnyvale (Sunday 10am-noon).
If you are interested, please go!
