Plan for Josh Williams
by Josh Williams · 04/19/2004 (3:45 pm) · 11 comments
I just wanted to let everyone know that as of today I officially became GarageGames' ninth employee. I am ecstatic. I've been considering entering the games industry for a while now, and there is no place I'd rather be working than right here.
I believe that GarageGames and its community have the potential to revolutionize the games business. There are many exciting things in the pipe at GG; my eyes light up just thinking about it. Add to that all that is going on in the community, and it just about feels like things are ready to explode. I'm very much looking forward to contributing to these efforts.
For the foreseeable future, I'll mainly be focusing on the documentation area. Many members of the community have done an awesome job contributing documentation to Torque. What I'd like to find out now is what sort of community documentation projects are being worked on at the moment. I want to coordinate with people, to whatever extent is feasible.
I don't expect it's possible to get everyone coordinated too tightly. Things just don't work that way in a setting like this, not by a long shot. But the more accurate picture we have of what's in the works out there, the better.
For example, today we received an email with a preview of some very ambitious scripting documentation. It always blows me away when stuff like that just pops up. It'd be nice to have a more solid feeling for what's going on out there.
If you are working on a documentation project and have a preview available (no matter how crummy you think it might be), please let me know. Email me at joshw@garagegames.com, and attach the preview, if possible.
Thanks a lot.
Alright, now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get back to doing my happy dance. Number Nine... WOOO!!

What Josh lacks in enthusiasm he makes up for in documentation. Its great to have him on board. I think we forgot to tell him that the #9th employee has to buy Friday beer.
