    Town Meeting Rescheduled (but only by 24 hours)

    By rob at 12:00 pm

    We have to make a slight change to this week’s Town Meeting. Instead of being on Wednesday, the Town Meeting has been moved to Thursday, Feb 16 @ 8pm EST.

    Don’t worry, nothing else is changing. You’ll still be brought up to speed by Ben and other members of the Quirky Staff, and there’ll still be a no holds barred Q&A immediately following the presentation. So keep your questions coming either on this post or on this thread in the forum.

    So as a reminder…

    What: Quirky Town Meeting + Q&A

    When: Thursday, Feb 16 @ 8pm EST

    Where: Quirky’s Ustream Channel

    That’s why we’ve set up our brand new streaming setup for tonight. Just follow this link to check out the shenanigans at Quirky HQ as they happen!

    Save the date: Town Meeting 2/15

    By rob at 5:00 pm

    As mentioned back in December, we decided to postpone our Q4 Town Meeting so we could present the most accurate information about what went on in 2011. Today we’re happy to announce our next Town Meeting will be broadcast live from our new office on Wednesday, February 15th at 6pm EST.

    A Town Meeting, for the uninitiated, is a once a quarter, livestreamed event, where we, the Quirky Staff, give the community a full rundown on what went on over the past three months, as well as what exciting things we have in the pipeline.

    So, to recap:

    What: Q4.5 Town Meeting

    When: Wednesday, February 15, 2012 – 6pm ET

    Where: Quirky’s Ustream Channel

    As always, after the Town Meeting presentation, we’ll hold a no holds barred Q&A. Any question is fair game, so drop them in the comments here, or in the forum, and we’ll make sure that they get addressed.

    Give your Community and Invention Ambassadors a big round of applause!

    By rob at 4:00 pm

    Today is Community Manager Appreciation Day, so we wanted to take a moment to give a shoutout to our amazing Community and Invention Ambassadors. They work tirelessly, around the clock answering questions and helping community members, new and old alike.

    Community management and customer service are often thankless jobs, so on this special day, let’s all say thanks to Andy, Rob G, Chris, Ruthea, Baron, Nathaniel, Andrew, Courtney and Katherine. These guys (and gals) rock!

    If you’ve had a great experience with one (or all) of these fine folks, let them know in the comments.

    Today’s brainstorm is cancelled.

    By rob at 10:45 am


    Sorry folks, looks like our Quirky meteorologists were wrong.

    Due to preparations for the move, and the current state of the modelshop, this week’s brainstorm is cancelled.

    Don’t worry though, we’ll be back, broadcasting live next Wednesday from our new office, and boy howdy will it be cool!

    We’re moving next week! How does that affect you?

    By rob at 4:30 pm

    In case you haven’t heard yet, Quirky is moving!

    Yes, we’re moving from our current, cramped office in NoHo to a brand new, gorgeous, state-of-the-art facility on the West Side.

    In preparation of moving an office of 80 people, we will not have Eval on Friday of next week. Eval will resume the following Friday (1/27) from our new office.

    In lieu of Eval, any ideas that are currently Under Consideration will stay there for a little longer.

    Additionally, customer service hours next week will end at 9pm on Thursday and resume at 8am on Monday. I repeat, there will be no Quirky customer service available Friday, Saturday or Sunday of next week.

    If you have any time sensitive issues that need our attention, please make sure to call or email us by Thursday.

    Thanks for your understanding!
