  Post-Production Updates Are A-Comin’!

  By jess at 3:16 pm

  During last week’s Town Meeting, we announced some changes to the way production updates would be communicated. In short:

  - We will provide a date estimate only when full production has begun.

  - We will send confirmation e-mails and have SKU (color/version) selection only when the product is on hand.

  - We will provide a full production report on each post-threshold product every three weeks.

  Stay tuned for the following post-production reports coming your way…

  Wrapster: later today!

  Quirk Of The Week: Josh Wright

  By shirley at 2:39 pm

  

  Meet Mr. Right. Josh Wright, that is! Josh has snagged wins in a variety of development phases like ID for Fit Kit, product naming for Steeper Keeper, and tagline for Pivot Power, which makes him quite the renaissance man. In addition to helping Quirky create great products, he also finds time to jump into forum discussions and tweet at us all day long.

  So why does he spend so much time with us? In his own words, “I am super passionate about Quirky, and what you guys are trying to do, and am super stoked that I get to be a part of something so ground breaking, which in my mind, will change the way the world creates!!” Wow, that definitely sums up why we love what we do. Cheers to that, Josh!
