Please all 18Fs, join together and create your own company. We are going to need you, sooner rather than later.
I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org
We're not done yet | 18F
