y! answers dev to be in europe
i guess since it's already been made public on techcrunch, i can post about this here... but yes, y! answers development is moving to europe. we already had some developers there, but now it will be driven entirely out of europe.
as for the us developers, we were all moved onto another project. while this is a change that i personally welcome (it's nice to have something new to work on every once in a while, esp if you're currently in a lull with what you are doing), it is kind of sad because answers was sort of like a child to many of the developers. although i wasn't there from the very beginning of its initiation, i was there early enough and for long enough to feel this way.
in other y! news, i found this to be great. it's about time

dude, you did a great job (albeit sometimes you needed a little nudging) for the team. you and Peter were the first front-end engineers to join after the first three; plus, you did a whole lot for relationships, stars, ratings and reviews, etc.
i will always remember your work-around singleton and my “i-though-it-was-a-singleton” singleton. good times.

haha
thanks man. yeah, truly, good times.
now the question is, with the expected 10%-20% layoffs that are to be announced, will i still have a job in february? i guess only time will tell…
