    nyc facbook developers garage

     

    Wednesday evening I had the opportunity to attended Facebook Developer Garage in NYC with Jason Beckerman and Mike Radparvar. As part of a global effort to link Facebook-minded business professionals with developers, the event was held at Daylife.com’s new headquarters. A huge thank you goes out to DayLife for providing a great venue for the event. If you would like to keep track of future Facebook Developer Garage events, and you are in the tri-state area, check out the Facebook Developer Garage Group.

    This weekend marked the first annual Step It Up’s National Day of Climate Action. Carrot Creative joined in support with thousands of other Americans, including eighty active members of Congress, resilient in making green initiatives a part of their daily life. The Crew supported and attended the events in New Haven, CT. We walked around the Connecticut Northeast Organic Farming Association’s Produce Market and picked up some wonderful organic vegetables, organic snacks and a whole bunch of green tidbits for our professional and personal lives.

    Check out our interview with Rodney Rumford of FaceReview fame.
    At this year’s Graphing Social Patterns, the buzz over the LOTTO application translated to many bloggings and media supporting our “rising star” of an application. And while we appreciate all the accolades, we are especially thankful and proud to be among the ranks of the most appealing applications detailed in FaceReview, receiving three and a half stars out of five.

    I speak on behalf of the entire Carrot Crew when I say that we have always held a personal accountability for our environmental impact and how we can improve upon it. Thus, when the opportunity arose to offer environmentally friendly internet services to our clients, we embraced the evolution of our personal commitment to the environment into our business world. All clients of Carrot Creative, past, present and future, now have the ability to harness alternative energy sources by implementing hosting operations that are powered 100% by solar energy.

    Graphing Social Patterns

    First off, I want to send out a huge hello to all the great people I had the opportunity to meet in San Jose last week at Graphing Social Patterns. Graphing Social Patterns: The Business & Technology of Facebook, is a conference designed for both technical developers and business professionals to better understand the current landscape of Facebook and discuss best practices in utilizing and distributing Facebook applications. The conference had a variety of panel discussions, including a panel featuring Carrot Creative’s own Jason Beckerman. Jason discussed Application Viral Marketing, and his panel discussion can be seen HERE.

    We recently completed identity design for Taste of Jamaica, located in Hamden, CT, as part of our monthly New Business and Community Development Initiative. Each month, Carrot Creative will offer its services to a local business in order to bolster the success of our community members. For Taste of Jamaica, we created a logo that is sure to attract both Jamaican food aficionados and first timers alike.

    Everyone at Carrot would like to wish Taste of Jamaica the best of luck with their new endeavor. And if you are in the Hamden area, take a trip down to Taste of Jamaica at 1012-1014 Dixwell Avenue.
