[FRIAM] Trello, Spolsky and Albuquerque

[Jochen Fromm]

Atlassian (known for JIRA & CONFLUENCE) has bought Trello this week for $452 million. Trello was founded by Joel Spolsky who was born in.. Albuquerque ! One of my Polish colleagues joked that his name Spolsky may come from a Polish grandparent who emigrated to the US, couldn't spell his name and just told he is from Poland ( "Z Polski" means "from Poland" in Polish ). However from Albuquerque in NM to being a millionaire in NY is not bad, isn't it?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Spolsky
Microsoft was founded in Albuquerque as well. There must be something about Albuquerque that makes it special :-)
-J.
