Frank’s been in rural Uganda for the past two weeks. He went on safari, built a platform for solar panels, dug a deep hole for… well, dug a deep hole, and discovered the excitement of exploring a new culture. We figured he’d be a little homesick, so we left some delicious Jello popsicles for him to come home to.
As a service company, our staff is our most important asset. Without them, we’d just have a bunch of lonely computers sitting around hoping to one day become self-aware. As such, we work hard to find great people, and we’ve found some of the greatest.

Trees improve our quality of life by improving the air we breathe, providing shade, and even absorbing noise. Several Key Tech’ers spent a beautiful, sunny Earth Day planting trees at Dickey Hill Elementary/Middle School with the students.

The Walters Art Museum here in Baltimore graciously hosted our recent employee spring fling event. The Walters is internationally renowned for its collection of art, which was amassed substantially by two men, William and Henry Walters, and eventually bequeathed to the City of Baltimore. The collection presents an overview of world art from pre-dynastic Egypt [...]
One interesting fact about Pi is that it is a non-repeating decimal – it never ends or repeats. How many digits do you know?
