Since Last Week

We finished up our birthday Timeouts with Patrick (Slide Deck, above left), Susanna, and Elizabeth and released our birthday T-shirts (above center), available for a limited time in the Equipment Shop. All that’s left to do is celebrate. If you’re in the greater Salem area, come join us on July 30. That last shot, the one on the right, is old news, but still good news (also attractive thumb-grid filler): Tom McQuaid's Birthday Playoff-winning shot!

Shopify + Dribbble Playoff

  • Design is… (Official Shopify + Dribbble Playoff) We’re teaming with our global Meetup co-sponsor Shopify on a Playoff with the theme of “Design is … .” Shopify held an internal contest to choose the opening shot. Paul Pritchard won. Now it’s your turn - go play!
  • National-poster-retrospecticus-logo-blink You are cordially invited to our first Dribbble Gallery show, launching this Thursday, July 24, right here at the blog. We are teaming up with the National Poster Retrospecticus for a new kind of Meetup: You attend the NPR show, you enjoy the NPR show, you meet Dribbblers and other cool NPR show-goers. To kick off, we’re hosting an online show of Dribbbling NPR participants. Don’t forget to stop by. BYO wine and cheese.
