Joel on Software

2000/12/19

The cover for my new book came back from the publisher today. Very exciting! Soon, I will be a famous author and people will stop me on the subway for an autograph and stuff. Now I just have to go through about 10 chapters of copy edits and change everything back to the way I originally wrote it :)

What's so depressing about customer "service" these days is that when you read something like this,  it sort of seems like par for the course.

College students: my company has paid summer internships in New York City, including free housing, free lunch, and the chance to develop software people will really use, with great mentors on interesting projects. Don't miss this chance of a lifetime. We only have a few spaces and they always go fast, so apply today.

You’re reading Joel on Software, stuffed with years and years of completely raving mad articles about software development, managing software teams, designing user interfaces, running successful software companies, and rubber duckies.

About the author.

I’m Joel Spolsky, founder of Fog Creek Software, a New York company that proves that you can treat programmers well and still be highly profitable. Programmers get private offices, free lunch, and work 40 hours a week. Customers only pay for software if they’re delighted. We make FogBugz, an enlightened project management system designed to help great teams develop brilliant software, and Fog Creek Copilot, which makes remote desktop access easy.
