What it does
We took a label printer and paired it with an easy-to-use mobile web app you can launch on your own phone via QR code. You choose from a variety of branded label designs, customize to your liking, and print directly from your phone.
Badger is a fun, self-service name badge printer
The Sharpie marker and pack of labels have served event organizers well for generations. These days, though, everyone carries a powerful computer in their pocket, and everything from our printers to our lights are connected to the Internet. What if we looked beyond the humble Sharpie, and reimagined name badges for the modern age? That’s what we set out to do with Badger. We took a spiffy Brother label printer and paired it with a fun and easy-to-use mobile web app you can launch on your own phone, simply by scanning a QR code. From there, you can browse through a variety of fun, branded designs, add your name and title—even your photo if you want—and have a freshly printed name badge…from badger.ink

Hey folks. Last year I was fortunate enough to sign a deal to write a book with my favorite technical publisher, The Pragmatic Bookshelf.

When you learn to program there's all of these amazing tutorials, examples and guides, but what was there for new managers? In response to this, a couple of years ago I started a blog over at https://www.theengineeringmanager.com which got a decent amount of…
