Everyone knows that professional conference goers like myself attend events not to listen to presentations, not to network but to collect schwag. Over the past couple of years I’ve done fairly well collecting tech t-shirts and I decided to create a weekly series critiquing tech companies t-shirt offerings in the expectation that a company with a great t-shirt is a prime candidate to have a great product also. Click here to see the series.
If you’d like your t-shirt reviewed, flick me an email to arrange things. The judges decision is, of course, final and very little correspondence will be entered into (perhaps).
Taking pride of place by virtue of the fact that they’re sole sponsors of CloudAve is Zoho. Acquired during the Office 2.0 conference last September, the Zoho shirt is an understated black crew neck.
Hot
- Embroidery instead of a printed logo
- Understated – can be worn out to dinner
- Black – simple, easy and hides the traditional “engineer’s armpits” stains
Not
- Made in Pakistan, so questionable labor and environmental standards

see now, if you were being really creative Ben, you would be running reader comps to give away some of the teeshirts you have collected.
(or was that the next step in your strategy??)
(or … you just wanted to keep expanding your wardrobe???)
