Brian Kotek Here, and Regarding this Blog: I Object

Greetings and salutations, most of all to the fellow esteemed members of the Broadchoice development team, a.k.a. the ArgumentCollection. I'm Brian Kotek, the newest (I haven't even officially started yet!) member of the team, though I've actually known most of these guys for years. I couldn't ask for a more talented collection (ha ha) of people to be working with.

I'm a Systems Architect here, and the plan is for me to head up a product line known as the Demand Accelerator. I'll blog about it in more detail once I myself have a better understanding of everything it does. But in essence, it makes it simple for enterprises to communicate down their distribution chains and marketing channels, and quickly see the results of their efforts in the way that matters most: return on investment.

I'll be pushing the zen of Test-Driven Development here, since a lot of the work will involve refactoring an existing system to make it a full-fledged product here at Broadchoice. Yes, you heard correctly: a company that not only understands the benefits of refactoring, but encourages it! Did I mention this job is going to be awesome?

You can expect to hear more from me as we forge ahead. It will be an interesting experience having two blogs. But it makes sense to post about work-related topics here since management is so open to letting us discuss what we're doing.

Until next time, I'm sure I speak for the whole company, Fraggles and Dozers alike (inside joke), when I say the world can expect some pretty great things from this talented and dedicated crew!
