HR/VT Fitclub week 2

7th May 2008

The results from Week 1 are in! [drum roll please]

ViaTalk: Total weight loss of 2.30%
HostRocket: Total weight loss of 2.36%

It's still a very close race at this point but [in my opinion] the first week is the easiest. We'll see who stands slimmest in the end and I will keep you updated as the competition goes on!

GO VIATALK!

GO TEAM 20!

23rd Apr 2008

A lot has happened since my last post, including a WIN for the Team 20 Rocketeers at the Boston Regionals and a great showing at the First National Competition at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, GA.

Our Rocketeers made it all the way into the Semi-finals [ranked 4th] in the Newton division before being eliminated by a very small margin. The competition was fierce, and the whole event was a lot of fun.

Congratulations to the whole team for a great season, all of us at HR/VT look forward to next year's game.

In other ViaTalk news: We've gathered some great feedback from those of you who have participated in our Customer Outreach Initiative so far, and we look forward to speaking to more and more of you in the coming weeks.

Also, starting Monday - The annual VT/HR Fitclub will officially begin. The staff will be maintaining a healthy diet, and participating in daily physical exercise with a goal of trimming down just in time for summer. At the end of this eight week competition, we will be comparing the average percentage of weight lost per office and the winner will be treated to a banquet to celebrate! So please, hold off on sending us any candy gift baskets - And if you really can't resist, make sure you address them to Hostrocket!!

New CP, Regional Champs and a Birthday Celebration!

26th Mar 2008

An update on a few things-VT:

1. The process of moving our client accounts over to our brand new Account Management Control Panel has been quite a success so far and the migration is nearing completion.
We're very excited about our new CP, but if for any reason you aren't completely satisfied with it, we're collecting suggestions for improvement by email at thedifference@viatalk.com

2. A few weeks back, our very own Shenendehowa Team 20 won the Finger Lakes First Robotics Regional Competition [our first win in over 10 years!!] in Rochester, NY. I didn't make it out to the regional, but Brendan, John, Tanya, and Eric were there for the action.
Today - The team departs for the Boston Regionals at Boston University Boston, MA. The whole HR/VT is cheering for another win. Good luck Rocketeers!

And finally... [drum roll]

TODAY IS BRADER'S BIRTHDAY! Happy Birthday Brendan!
