Hi Macetc,
I surely don't know what it is about your company name, but each time I see it I think of 'Bubbles' the chimpanzee. Now I don't know whether there's anything sinister in that, but it may help me if you'd disclose the theory (if any) behind the choice of your name.
Please, none of the old time gags like 'we fool around like monkey's' etc!!
Cheers, Nigel

'ello,
A Code Monkey is actually a derogatory term for someone who programs the same rubbish day after day without any skill at all involved. It's basically a programmer who should be doing something better as they're more skilled than the work they're doing. It can also mean a programmer without a clue of what they're doing (hence a monkey) who puts together snippets of code they've found. Luckily, that isn't me.
The term my friend and I use it in is someone who just sits in front of a computer all day, night and every second of existence programming and lives purely for that. So you're just coding all the time.
As it's a company name, change that into Coding Monkeys and bingo. Everyone remembers it and it's still quite true.
Hope you can sleep easy tonight

Is this what I've got to look forward to? Smalltalk on a BUSINESS forum? You lot should be ashamed! 'Happily married'?! My girlfriend of 1 year 22 days would eat me if she caught me on this 'dating thread' lol!
And Claire, no way is that you on your display picture, at 27 you'll be all wrinkly and nearly dead! :lol:
