Tiffani Jones (Brown) and Matt Brown happily run thingsthatarebrown (http://thingsthatarebrown.com), a web design agency, from their house in Seattle. Matt's a web vet with over 12 years of experience, and Tiff's an experienced project manager and web writer (She also runs her own web writing company, Second and Park). Tiff and Matt have an awesome time working, playing, and eating good food together.

If for some reason this doesn't make it I would really like to hear what you guys have to say on this topic. But I hope to hear it at SXSW

I second (no pun intended) Jess' comment. I voted for this but if it doesn't make it, I'd like to know more about what you've learned!
