We are!! Company Name: GazeHawk Company Size: 4 Company URL: http://www.gazehawk.com/ Position: (a) Web Developer or (b) Blogger Contact Email: jobs@gazehawk.com Skills Needed: (a) JS/Python/PHP or (b) either statistics or UX plus writing (basically you run cool eye tracking studies and blog about them). Both internships paid, open to possible full-time position after if you're interested.

I remember going into your office during an open house late last year and then laughing way to much at your company's name. Made things a bit awkward, but the table tennis was fun!

For what it's worth GazeHawk has a great location in downtown MV!

Thanks, we actually moved to our own office (the old one was at 500startups). We're still in downtown MV but closer to the Caltrain. We still have the ping pong table setup :).

Love your website but you have some serious pixelation around your logo. You should consider changing the logo from a transparent png to just a regular block with the green background. Also, you should ensure that there is no fragmentation there.

Kind of late to be asking, isn't it? I'm doing an internship at Facebook, and I'm reasonably sure they've finished hiring interns (about 300 of 'em).

Oh Derek, always bragging about your internships at Facebook. Anyway, I think Google is still hiring summer interns. There are always a few stragglers.

Oh munn, always chiming in at unfortunate times!

Thanks for the heads up. I just checked out upout, really cool idea and great UI.

To try to return the favor: on your about page, you link to /karma.html, instead of /karma.
