Here’s the latest in what’s happening @ Amplify Interactive

Good Times

The team recently took a much-deserved afternoon off for good times out at Edgefield for some beers, some golf and some laughs. It turned out to be an absolutely beautiful day, and Christian captured it all on a recent post. You can check our flickr photostream for pics.
