Office Snapshots (https://officesnapshots.com) was started ~11 years ago as a side project while I was teaching middle and high school history. It got fairly popular immediately due to early viral sharing on Twitter and Digg.

I just kept going at posting to it for the next several years. Eventually I decided to stop teaching, and my wife and I moved to a new city, and decided to do something else for a career. Through the process of temping at various businesses (warehouse for a tooth whitening company, office manager at a cremation sales company), I decided that Office Snapshots should be my main pursuit.

There was still a lot of doing various projects for people to make money in the meantime while the business was growing such as web design work or hunting for working coupon codes for a friend's business.

All that said, Office Snapshots has been my sole work for the last 3 years and we recently launched a site dedicated to healthcare projects and one for educational architecture projects.

I check out your site every few weeks. I really enjoy looking at the design and layouts in offices around the world. No real reason for it. It’s just a nice distraction sometimes. (Especially in boring meetings!) Keep up the good work!
