Clockwork is pleased to announce the creation of a research unit, along with the appointment of Michael Koppelman (currently CFO) to the new position of Chief Scientist.

In May 2009, I added Clockwork as a Foursquare location before one of our spring parties. It's been fun watching the number of users steadily increase over the last year, and seeing all the cool ways people are using it. (But, seriously — what's up with people adding their homes as "locations"? That's just weird!)

It's also been fascinating to watch businesses tap into Foursquare with special Mayor offers (which are now an official part of the Foursquare service offering).

We've been busy little elves over here at the Clockwork web site workshop! So busy, in fact, that we've hardly had time to stop and admire our handiwork. Over the past couple of months, we've launched a wide variety of new projects. Check 'em out!

Clockwork is feeling the love lately! We've gotten some cool recognition from around the web.

For the last few years Clockwork has participated in the Twin Cities Bike Walk Week, and this year finished in the top 10 in the Workplace Team Category! Wahoo!

Clockwork is excited to annouce the launch of the new Hawaiian Gardens Casino website! The site is using MasterCal for it's upcoming events and promotions, beyond the great functionality, the site is really pretty to look at!

Twitter's meteoric rise has resulted in a vast number of tweets—short bursts of text, links and pictures. Brands, event managers, speakers, educators and individuals are looking for ways to filter the torrent of tweets and Tweetwally, a new web application we developed, gives users more powerful ways to use Twitter than ever.
