Technologies come and go. Methodologies fall into and out of favor. Linux distributions continually iterate and improve. For the past twenty years, Pogo has been right here in the thick of it,\u00a0providing solutions to\u00a0technological challenges for companies of all sizes, universities, and government organizations. That&#8217;s right &#8211; 2019 marks Pogo&#8217;s twentieth anniversary! We plan to celebrate this milestone in a variety of ways throughout 2019.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Busy_Calendar_Ahead\"><\/span>Busy Calendar Ahead<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This year will be Pogo&#8217;s busiest ever for trade shows and open source conferences across this great nation.

Help us celebrate our twentieth anniversary in style. Our original &#8220;coin&#8221; t-shirt was a huge hit when it was first introduced in the early 2000&#8217;s. It has now been several years since we&#8217;ve made them available, and they&#8217;ve been very persistently requested by our fans. We are stoked to be updating our famous coin for our 20th anniversary.\u00a0Stop by our booth\u00a0at an upcoming show to get yours.
