This month we threw a kick ass party for all the DOers in London. What’s the Twilio recipe to celebrate an amazing year? Take a bunch of arcade machines, bowling lanes, pool tables and Karaoke, put them on free vend, add 400 developers, mix, then smile.

If you came along we hope you had a blast. If you didn’t, why not! You can relive the night by flicking through Paul’s photo’s of the evening here.

 

Even though we are heading into party season, we are not stepping off the gas pedal just yet. Since July, we have been to something like 46 events and met in the order of 16,000 DOers across Europe.

One Monday morning when we had a spare 20 minutes, we also moved into our new London office in Central Working Shoreditch, right next to Google Campus in Bonhill Street. If you are in the area and want to come to say hi, now you now know where we are. Just look for the owl.

We now have a bunch of partnerships in place with some of the UKs leading Startup Incubators and Accelerators. You can find out more here.

As we head into 2013, if you are an event organiser and would like Twilio involved, or if you are in a European Accelerator and would like a Twilio promo code & some face to face demo time for your teams, please get in touch.

And one last thing. If you would like a new challenge for 2013, come join the Twilio Developer Evangelist crew, we are hiring for Europe! Check out the job role here.

Happy Christmas,

James
