Yes, that's right, I managed to bribe, borrow and steal my way into employment with Stardock! Several months back I started chatting up a few people about potential openings when I realized it was time to move on from my current employer. Recently, they started to open up hiring (https://www.stardock.com/jobs.asp) and I tossed my resume and cover letter into the hat (Cordelia helped a LOT with the cover letter!) And just recently went out for an interview and subsequently was offered a job, which I gladly took!
The role I've been brought in for is a mixture of software QA to help do more internal testing on products before they go out to the public test group, and a more nebulous role called "software evangelist" which is something that's still being described to me via email. But I do know that it means going forward, you're probably going to see my name a lot more within the Stardock community of sites, as well as on sites connected in some way to our products (i.e. Neowin, DeviantArt, any site that covers skinning and UI enhancements, games etc).
More than that, I'm not sure on. My last day at my current job is June 30th, and my start date with Stardock is July 12th. Sometime between now and then I'll be finding a place to live and then packing up all my crap and hauling it from Connecticut to Michigan.
But I'm sure my first duty will to be to get my new manager (Cordelia) a cup of coffee and a newspaper

Enjoy your new job.
I'm pretty psyched and can't wait for July to roll around!
