Georgetown University’s Center for Education and the Workforce (CEW) has released their Woodpile-designed “What’s It Worth” report. Highly touted by various media outlets—The New York Times, Washington Post, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, etc.—the CEW received 40,000 hits on their website the first day of the report’s release, and was posted by over 3,300 Facebook users within the first day.

Congratulations to the Center on Education and the Workforce! The full report can be found at http://cew.georgetown.edu/whatsitworth/.

Have you Spaced Your Face yet? Check out this award-winning interactive site we developed for NASA, with the help of our good friends at Bully!

It’s NASA’s response to Elf Yourself. Visitors can upload and attach their image to astronauts getting down next to a selection of the agency’s out-of-this-world gadgets. Share a little NASA knowledge with a friend by Spacing Your Face.
