The Tripod Insider


The newly redesigned Tripod site is set to launch next week. We've been burning the midnight oil for the past few weeks to make our deadline. Maggie, Maria, and Adam have done a great job keeping us on track — not to mention keeping us fed! Dinner has been on Tripod most nights!

Another special food-related occurrence: A new Indian take-out joint is catering our lunch on Tuesdays. And it's some tasty stuff! It's not too often that you'll find delicious ethnic food in the rural foothills of the Berkshires. Have we lucked out! And, might I add, I ate more than my booth mate Mark, who happens to be 6' 4", as compared to my measly 5' 6". I think he was pretty humbled by our lunchtime experience. Maybe next time, Mark!

Not only are we launching a new site next week, but we're also holding our annual holiday party at one of the local ski resorts! Woo-hoo! Not that we have any snow around here ... it's been over 50 degrees for the past week. If only it would snow! Maybe we'll get lucky and actually have a white holiday party.

Be sure to tune in next week to find out how the launch went!
