It's about time I get a newsletter from MapBox. Oh man - the days of 2013 when Mapbox was all the rage.

@rjhale1971 Mapbox was all the rage. Mapbox was cool. But we were also cool, or at least aspired to be cool. I know I did.

A lot has changed since then.

@AtanasE We were cool. We had these new things called openstreetmap, twitter, and a whole host of open source tools....boundless....... Here we are - the old jaded people.

@rjhale1971 @AtanasE Remember when OpenGeo was renamed to Boundless? Remember when ESRI became Esri? Remember when Randal Hale used to post all those "Holy crap!" photos?

@kgjenkins @rjhale1971 Remember #geoglobaldomination ? Remember #geobeers ? Those were the days. Full of camaraderie and excitement.

@freyfogle @kgjenkins @rjhale1971 It is a goal of mine, although not within easy reach, given the distances
