Where do we get those wonderful toys - photos of tech offices

by Brad Linder Jul 25th 2007

Ever look out across the expanse of cubicles filling your office workspace and wonder how much cooler it must be to work at a place like Digg, Revver, or Twitter? Wonder no more.

Office Snapshots is a blog with a purpose: to show you the insides of web 2.0 and technology company offices. It's kind of one of those "why didn't we think of it" blogs. The folks behind the site aren't running all over the globe with cameras. They're just taking publicly available images from sources like Flickr and showing you what's behind those closed doors.

The photo above shows the office of Connected Ventures in New York. Connected Ventures runs a number of sites including College Humor and Busted Tees. Company co-founder Zach Klein took the photo of this office, which you may recognize from a wildly popular video of some workplace shenanigans at the company HQ.

Thanks for linking to the site, I was kind of blindsided by all of the interest in it yesterday. I will be heading out to some offices on my own too, the flickr scouring was more of a way to get things started.

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
