First I hope everyone will be participating in Earth Hour tonight at 8:30pm to 9:30pm in their local time zone.

My blog has been pretty quiet recently because I’ve been busy getting up to speed at the new job.  We’ve re-branded ourselves and our product as Pulse Energy.  We had a launch party at the offices of Busby Perkins + Will, one of the foremost architecture firms in the world when it comes to designing green and LEED certified buildings.  The Mayor of Vancouver came, we served Enertini’s complete with dry ice garnish.  It was a good time.

One of the project’s we’ve been working on is monitoring energy savings during Earth Hour for some of the bigger buildings around Vancouver.  So tonight, for an hour, many buildings will be shutting off HVAC systems, lights and more.  For those not in the Pacific time zone you can check it out on our site in real-time (but if you’re in the Pacific Daylight zone please wait until after 9:30 when Earth Hour is over — we can all live without email, tweets, FaceBook and YouTube for an hour!).

We have some very interesting technical work at Pulse.  Our software is making a real difference in helping companies with large building portfolios improve their bottom line and reduce the impact on the environment. We’re looking for smart people in the Vancouver area to join us as developers, QA engineers, information architects, business analysts and more.  Check out our current postings. We’re always looking for good people.
