Adobe + Destroy Today
Last month, I spent a good two weeks flying to Chicago, San Francisco and New York City, meeting with Leo Burnett, Adobe, and Google. Leo Burnett showed interest for their Energy Pool, Adobe for their Experience Design (XD) team, and Google for their Creative Lab. Throughout each meeting, I soaked in as much as I could about each group and ultimately decided to join Adobe.
Working with Adobe, I will develop Adobe AIR apps full-time. I will work out of Baltimore for this next year, flying out to SF from time to time, and then take the trek out to the west coast. I am incredibly excited about working with Adobe and am ecstatic that I’ll be able to continue working on my applications.
But there’s more. Adobe is in the process of licensing DestroyTwitter. This means I’ll be working on the app full-time with the support and resources of the company. Not only that, I’ll be working on other exciting projects at the same time. Since DestroyTwitter is the product of free time between school and work, I can only imagine what it will become with considerably more focus. Stay tuned.

Congrats. I’m a huge fan of DT, but I still use TweetDeck to manage all my accounts. Here’s to hoping that the full-time dev will mean I can finally drop TD for DT fulltime.
