We're still in the very early planning stages, but later this year we're opening a new Southern California headquarters for VOIPo. We'll likely continue to have Sales & Support in Houston, but the Orange County office will serve as the new headquarters.

Again this won't be until later this year since it takes many months to find space, furnish it, coordinate things, hire there, etc, but we're pretty excited about it.

HostGator is remaining entirely in Houston...this will be a VOIPo only situation.

A little off topic, but does this mean you'll be personally moving to CA?

Yeah, I'll be moving.

I looked at a lot of cities, but overall SoCal was the only place I got the feeling that I would to stay long-term, so that was a big part of the decision.

I didn't see my name tag in the office pics. Will it be in the new office?? :)

You could have chosen Holyoke or Springfield, MA :p 30 mins from Bradley airport, on the cross roads of 91 N/S and 90 E/W, big fiber runs right through the area etc.
Bit cold in winter :mad:

Near Brea Tim?

I miss the Brea Mall... Especially the Ice Rink they had there years ago...

Tim, Does that mean new taxes for California customers?

When we switch to itemized taxes, it will likely cause it to go up for CA residents, yes.

However, anyone who orders before we switch to that from the flat $3 method that we have now will be grandfathered in at the $3 rate.

Yeah it's in that general area. We're mainly looking in Irvine right now.

Well ViaTalk is in Albany, so I got my Northeast experience in during the 3 years I was there.

Now TX is the opposite extreme with it being in the 90s and humid all the time.

CA is nice and mild.
