We take snap shots of vacations, events and every day occurrences. We record our experiences through imagery and video; but what about all those hours spent cooped up inside the office, cubicle farm or the meeting room? Is it really all that boring? Sure, you spend a lot of time at work; it’s the same scenery day in and day out, nothing special. But what if you tried looking at it from a different perspective? Maybe through the eyes of your first day… or a visit to someone else’s office for the first time.

Office Snapshots is a weblog that collects pictures from places people spend most of their week. Though, most of the images are of Web 2.0 internet startups/companies, some are readily familiar to everyone. You will find Web 2.0 offices like Craigslist, Google (Zurich), Threadless and Tumblr. They also have some large corporations as well: GAP Inc., The New York Times, Adobe and my favorite Pixar. (Who wouldn’t want to work at Pixar!?)

Call me a nerd, geek or weirdo… but I find these pictures pretty interesting. It’s a view into a professional world that isn’t familiar to me where others work (and sometimes play) in their own everyday “mundane” environments. Mostly, it turns out to be a case just like dog owners look like their pets. I was surprised to see the Craigslist HQ look like it did, but then it really makes sense when you think of what their website looks like.

It makes me wonder how interesting people would find the office I work in… and how interesting your office might be.
