Hi Folks, If you are reading this post it’s most likely because you are having a look at the new TechBoise.com website! We hope you are enjoying the design and functionality that YellowBox Studio added. This was quite a challenge that Holli and TechBoise addressed to the studio for both front-end interface design and back end programming.

Hello Boise. I may not be there physically but I’m there in spirit. I’ve been watching you guys for the last year and I have to say you’re doing just fine without me.

I still follow along on Twitter and read the blogs and still talk to quite a few of you electronically.
