Christmas is long gone and the Superbowl is over, which can only mean one thing - Valentine's day is almost here. If you are anything like the <a href="http://www.cloudspokes.com/">CloudSpokes </a>team, you struggle to find a great gift for the love (or "like") in your life by February 14. It's not a secret that we're in love with developers, but we know as well as anyone that the developers in our life have their own unique likes.</p>

<p>Given that there is only one week left until Valentine's Day, we wanted to make shopping for the special developer in your life a little easier. Here is a list of gift ideas for the developer love (or "like") in your life, crowdsourced from our community team.</p>
