Our developers tend to have interesting conversations throughout the day in Socialspring Stream, our communication and collaboration application. It occurred to me today that it would make sense to take some of the useful tidbits of information that surface there and share them with the rest of the development community! After all, the conversations are captured already - all I need to do is bundle up the relevant bits of information and serve them to you via our blog; in other words, expect more quick posts of tips and tricks here!

Every Friday at 4:00 pm, the Intridea team takes pause from the pressing tasks we are immersed in. For an hour we forget about open tickets, bug fixes, running tests, reading code, and writing emails. From different parts of the country we pick up the phone and join one another in what we call, “Coffee Hour.”
