A cool thing about social media is that you get a chance to see the world through other people’s eyes. And some people have a great eye for things! In this case it was the snow storm (aka bomb cyclone???) that came through the city Thursday, dumping an estimated 12 inches of the fluffy stuff on our streets and sidewalks and pressing up against our windows.
We thought a fun way of recapping the storm would be to take a sort of virtual tour through the borough. We focused on photos of people in the Brooklyn tech world but went beyond that as well. It’s a big borough.

Yes! @NYCParks are open. But with wind picking up and temperatures dropping, use safety and don't stay outside for long. Parents, keep an eye on children and make sure they don't get too cold! pic.twitter.com/kox71zeugX
