FOWA

A while ago some of us attended Future of Web Apps in London. A great event with some very nice speakers and interesting topics. Have a look at the video’s at the Carsonified website. Enjoy!

One of the highlights of the event for sure was Diggnation and Google Beers. Real fun.


October 27th, 2008Boulevart @ sailing event

Getting up at 7 o’clock to walk for 12 miles on the beach was a god’s gift for a bunch of designers and developers (not!) J However this was the start of an active get together sailing event with the Boulevart team. The sailing boats were fun but flying over the sea at 60 miles an hour, with 250 horsepower powerboats, kicked ass.

February 3rd, 2008Adrenaline and relaxation

Adrenaline and relaxation were the keywords for our 40 colleagues and their partners.  No time to waste; after delicious spaghetti Luc drove us into the woods for a nocturnal dropping.  Wind, rain and freezing cold couldn’t spoil our fun; the first team raced to the bottles of jenever like the were chasing rabbits.

At 9 am we gathered around a wooden chalet to meet our guide and had some coffee to get us started. A one hour quad drive was the first on the menu.

Ok, yellow is not our company color, and the extra outfit was not that comfortable. Going through miles of deep mud puddles and beautiful landscapes was great fun for most of us. Occasionally one of the colleagues dropped of his bike, but this couldn’t spoil the fun.

Boys will always be boys :-)

To end up with our outdoor adventures we climbed up some rocks (via ferrata) and enjoyed a deathride from 50 meters altitude.  Some of us were highly concentrated, fighting their fear of heights, while other colleagues were fighting their own (paintball) war.  To call it a day we went back for some Japanese TAIKO and relaxing massages.
