The Software engineer would start a methodology to work ina team-oriented construct with an interpresonal dynamic to optimize development creativity. After 2 weeks they'd have a shoddily-designed iphone app that operates the toaster and has cute animations.

In the context of the modern age, they would now secure down the toaster by wrapping a RESToast API in a Docker container utilizing dynamic provisioning software to deploy micro toast applications (toastlets, if you will) that each perform a purely functional toasting operation leaving the hypertoaservisor in an immutable state.

Some modifications to the previous bootoastrap web-facing interface have been made to add a HTML5 material design that displays better on tablets.

With our 3.0 update, your toaster now lets your friends know when and what you are toasting through our new Google+ integration. Using Google's analytics platform, you can track your toasting history, carb to toast ratio, and be reminded to buy extra loaves as you run low.

Your information on Google Toast's platform remains solely the property of Google. We retain the right to sell your toast information to advertisers as part of our Toast Plus program. Stay tuned for our public beta of this new program. ETA April 1st.
