At Gossamer Threads, we love our shiny gadgets, whirring gizmos, and fantastical doodads. Christmas was kind to us, and many of us received a whirlwind of gadgets (or at least the monies to buy them) for gifts. The collective battery power used by all of our little electronics could probably power a small city.
This recent surge of electronics accumulation has sparked a competition in our office. Whose gadgets are the best? Who is the Gadget King??
2007 was very good to us; we’ve acquired more employees, a new office, new clients, and are expanding at a rapid pace. Of course, more details shall be divulged in future blog posts, so stay tuned and expect to see some great things from us in 2008!
Thank you for your continued support, and from all of us at Gossamer Threads, we wish you a fantastic new year.

It’s that season again! Let this mark the first holiday season for our beloved Gossamer Blog <3 During this special time, we at Gossamer Threads like to practice the oldest and most noblest of traditions: The White Elephant (aka The Theiving Secret Santa.)
Join us, as I walk you through the epic night of our staff dinner party!
Since 1999, Gossamer Threads has been a tenant in an early 20th century building called The Sun Tower, a structure that enjoys special historical status in the young city (incorporated in 1886) of Vancouver. Built in 1912 for local newspaper The Vancouver World, the tower was the tallest building in the British Empire at the time of its completion, succeeding the previous record-holder, The Dominion building, located just two blocks away.
Ian and his creation
While many probably consider a coding house starchy and lacking in spontaneity, nothing could be further from the truth here at Gossamer. However, when Halloween rolls around, there can definitely be a certain um…nerdy quality to the choice of costumes on display.
