Every month, Socket employees nominate and vote on a co-worker who best exemplifies our Core Values and Beliefs.

This month, we picked Jason Vander Veen, technical support supervisor.

He joined the Socket team earlier this year and rapidly started to take on more responsibilities. When the department needed a new leader a few months ago, Jason fit the bill.

His team members say he's "like a duck, calm and cool on the surface, but paddling like heck underneath."

Wouldn't it be neat to know if your great-great-great grandfather was a painter, a farmer or a jazz musician?

Welcome to the age of the Internet. You can find tons of cool info about your ancestors online.

Before you get started, look through your paperwork for all the documents you can find. Wills, death certificates, birth certificates, family Bibles - they'll all give you an idea of names, dates and other important facts.

We had a great time at this week's Jefferson City Business Showcase.

It gave us the chance to debut our brand new fax-to-email service!

Think about what your office may have looked like many years ago. All the outdated equipment you've probably ditched throughout the years--old phones, big computer monitors and so on.

Now you can ditch that clunky old fax machine for good, too! We showed our customers a quick demo of how simple and easy faxing can be.
