Sean joins us as a Community Manager. Welcome him to the family with a friendly tweet: @caniba At the risk of putting myself in an awkward situation if the singularity goes down and there’s ever a robot uprising, I’d like to go on record saying that I’m a passionate believer that technology should be used to better serve humanity and to positively affect the human experience. Whether it’s Facebook lending a hand in the overthrowing of a repressive regime or… Continue Reading
Making Moves
Kathryn joins us as a QA Analyst. Welcome her to the family with a friendly tweet: @kathrynfarwell I’ll let you in on a little secret: finding a job isn’t easy. Okay, so that’s not really a secret. But finding a job you really, really enjoy, especially right out of college, is difficult. I graduated in May with no job lined up, and while it was a little stressful, it didn’t really bother me. Sure it confused my friends and family who… Continue Reading
Carrot for a Change
Bonnie is Carrot’s newest member of the design team. Welcome her to the family with a friendly tweet: @bonnieharriman We all get comfortable with our lives, our jobs, our friends. We know what we like, and we know what we don’t. We get to a point where we feel established, accepted, and successful. And because of this, change is scary. I reached this point in my life two months ago. I lived in Boston, had five years of work experience under… Continue Reading
Movember is here! Beards be gone!
Our favorite time of year is finally here. No, it’s not the recently passed Halloween, or the now ubiquitous Starbucks Holiday Cups. Rather, it is the event in which men with clean shaven cheeks pop up all over the city. Yes friends, moustache season (aka Movember) is here. Carrot Creative is participating in the month-long-moustache-growing-charity-event to help raise money for the fight against prostate cancer. Below are the before and after shots of our fine gentlemen. And please don’t forget… Continue Reading
Join the Carrot Family!
While my favorite thing about Carrot is the people and being small enough to know everyone’s favorite food (note to self: pick up peanut butter filled pretzels for Dan), it’s still exciting that we’re large enough to offer great benefits that rival any New York agency. We’re still working on that free cafeteria, but we do have medical, dental and vision insurance plans. We prefer that our team members spend their time worrying about how awesome the work they’re creating… Continue Reading
F8: What’s Launching
We’re here in force at F8 and jazzed about the platform changes in store at Facebook, some of which we’ve been honored to build with via our work on the The Daily Facebook app. We will be following up to this post soon, with our additional thoughts on what this means for users, brands and what will surely be a leap in the evolution of how we share, experience and archive our daily lives. Announced today: Timeline: The story… Continue Reading
Introducing: Platlas
Platlas.com: A love letter to our favorite social networks. Earlier this summer, we took on the somewhat daunting task of exhaustively mapping out the ecosystem of Facebook. Even though Carrot is a Preferred Development Consultant and we consider ourselves severely versed in the Platform, we still learned A LOT by delving into Facebook so expansively. However, our ultimate goal was to narrow down a story within this vast array of features, into something compelling and widely relevant to us: our clients and our industry. Platform education is… Continue Reading
Carrot or Bust
Sunny Eckerle joins Carrot as our newest Design Intern. Give her a warm welcome: @SunnyEckerle There exists a list, now packed away somewhere deep in a box at the back of a closet, covered in dust and probably cat hair, that I created back in May. On that list is every job and internship I applied to when I graduated college many moons ago (aka 3 months). It’s numbered, it’s dated, some jobs are highlighted, others are crossed out. The final… Continue Reading
Remembering and Honoring
Today, like all days, Carrot Creative is proud to call America “home”. We are proud of the resilience, support and courage Americans have shown throughout the hard times following the September 11th attacks. We are also proud and honored to have the opportunity to watch the new One World Trade Center (known to us as the Freedom Tower) grow right across the water since we moved into our new office. The speed with which the tower is being built is an… Continue Reading
