I don't know why, but I've always enjoyed looking at things like this. Companies that have really cool workspaces always fascinated me. Great site! Keep up the good work!
Glad you've enjoyed the site, I always like hearing from people that have been reading for a while. I started it in 2007 and there are still a number of people that have been reading since it initially made it to the FP of Digg.
I've been adding new features recently, like the pinterest-like area for browsing office photos by room.
My goal of late has been to help people find and interact with the old posts that would traditionally be lost in the date-archive format of a traditional blog.
Basically I saw images of Google's offices and wondered if there were any sites that showed only office photos. There weren't any that I could find so I bought a domain and started posting photos I came across.
It was a collection of candid photos that weren't very good at first, but it is mainly architectural photography submitted by design firms now.
gin side project. noun. :: A fun side project that turns into successful venture worthy of posting to Hacker News (with or without having been conceived while drinking gin).
I started it in 2007 as a gin side project to teaching history. I'm no longer teaching and it is the majority of my income.
