Weekend Reads: Meet the Team

We’ve had two exciting releases this week: our Windows 8 app and our UK Catalog! Who made the magic happen this week? Our Web and Business Development teams—meet them, and see what they’re reading, below!

Our Web Team:

Filip, Lead Web Developer

“On a daily basis I read mostly tech with a mixture of men’s lifestyle. Some of my favorite sources include The Verge, Lifehacker, AskMen, GQ and Men’s Health. When I unwind I’ll checkout my Art & Photography page which has [daily dose of imagery], From Me To You and Awesome People Hanging Out Together.”

Justin, Web Developer

“I enjoys reading a variety of sources about tech, music and society, like The Verge, MacRumors, GOOD, Pitchfork, and Brain Pickings.”

Our Business Development Team:

Ross, Head of Business Development & Partnerships

“I read a wide breadth of content sources on Pulse, but they tend towards niche content areas rather than broadly based general feeds. For instance, I love the Bleacher Report & SB Nation San Francisco Giants & 49ers feeds, respectively, found in our Local Sports categories on mobile/tablet apps. I also love the Premium Water Cooler feed from WSJ found on iOS devices ($0.99 a month for 15-20 articles from the WSJ a day? That’s amazing!) And, my guilty pleasures are Men’s Fitness, AskMen, Uncut, and of course, the Best of Men’s Lifestyle aggregated feed.”

What Ross is reading this week:

“BAMA WON’T ALWAYS WIN!!!”  (The New Yorker: The Sporting Scene)

Jessica, Partnerships Manager

“It’s tough to pinpoint just one favorite sources but I generally enjoy reading articles from Business (Inc. and Harvard Business Review) and Women’s Lifestyle - particularly beauty and fashion.  I gravitate towards Business as I find the articles are effective for personal growth and development and Women’s Lifestyle as I am passionate about fashion.”

What Jessica is reading this week:
