My last (and so far sole) visit to Atlanta, a couple of months ago for a series of interviews, had been so short, I think I spent more time on the planes between LA and Atlanta than really on the ground. Well, not exactly but it felt like it.

This time, now a fully legit Turner employee, I will have more time to explore the city. A whole week to be precise!

First stop, Techwood or the Turner Broadcast origination center, a large campus built around "The Mansion", which from what I understand, is at the center of everything, place of birth of CNN, broadcast center, changing rooms for actors, Studios, etc...

Having been used to studio lots for 4+ years, it actually feels good to work on a campus that looks like one! The place is really nice, with great human feel to it!

The mansion has greatly expanded beyond what it had first been and numerous buildings are now surrounding it. I so far have solely visited one of them, but luckily, it does contain the local commissary!

I also found a fantastic bar that hosts a Heavy Metal Karaoke Night, with live band and cheap drinks...

This place is full of surprises!
