Since I blogged about my first and second Reevoo birthdays, I thought I better mention that today is my third. I think I may now have been at Reevoo for longer than I was in Antarctica.

I just realised I forgot to celebrate my second Reevoo birthday.
So to make up for that I just worked out (not very scientifically) that in the 2 years 2 months I’ve been working at Reevoo, I’ve travelled almost twice round the world by GNER train. And that doesn’t include my travel on London commuter trains, tubes & buses…
Distance from Durham to London Kings Cross = 232 miles as the crow flies1.
Journeys per week = 2
Number of weeks (excluding holidays) = 48 + 48 + 8 = 104
Total distance travelled = 104 * 2 * 232 = 48,256 miles
Earth’s circumference = 24,901 miles according to About.com
Twice round the world = 2 * 24,901 = 49,802 miles
Anyway, I’m tired and that was tricky maths, so I’ve probably made a mistake. Probably time to go to bed.

If you’re looking to escape the “Enterprise” world of Java and .NET for the shiny new world of Ruby on Rails, take a look at Ben’s blog post and 37Signals job advert.
Things are really starting to hot up here at Reevoo. When you’re in the middle of it all, it’s easy to forget the progress we’ve been making. In recent months, we’ve…
I work with a talented and friendly bunch of developers…
We’re heavily into Test-Driven Development, Continuous Integration/Deployment and Open Source. It’s an exciting and fun place to work.
If you’re interested, send Ben (ben_at_reevoo_dot_com) your CV and mention you saw the job here.

As a belated celebration of my one year anniversary at Reevoo, I thought I’d post a link to our new (and only slightly embarrassing) marketing page.
