Quirky

Sunday Morning

Last Sunday, I spent the morning doing the most luxurious, relaxing thing I can think of. I sat in a sunny cafe in the West Village, sipped on a cappuccino, and read the Sunday New York Times.

Two headlines caught my eye:

TECHNOLOGY

New York Isn’t Silicon Valley. That’s Why They Like It.

A decade after the dot-com bust, the Internet economy in New York is springing back to life.

and

GENERATION B

Experienced Hands, Still Valued

A company that is booming through the Great Recession takes the value of baby boomers seriously.

I read these articles, thanking my lucky stars that I’m working in a young, energetic start-up environment like Quirky… in a city like New York.
