From what I can tell it appears that Jeff Sandquist’s manager went on vacation and so he decided to gathered a bunch of buddies around and ask, “What would be a cool website we can put together for tech enthusiasts?” and 10 was born.
That probably wasn’t how this site came about, but it’s the type of project that many people would *want* to start but maybe not until the boss took a long vacation. It doesn’t seem like the kind of site you’d see from Microsoft and that’s a compliment.
It sort of reminds me of a virtual water cooler where people chill out and talk about the new gadgets and technology.
