Not sure if any of you guys are redditors, but the team controlling the rover are doing an AMA (basically, a completely open Q&A session) right now over there:

(Look for the username highlighted in a blue circle for the team's responses. It takes a while to get used to reddit's comment thread layout.)

Interesting factoid I hadn't considered:

Since the Martian Day is 24 hours, 40 minutes, 40 minutes longer than an Earth day, do the JPL scientists and engineers live their lives on Martian days to stay in sync?

[–]CuriosityMarsRover[S] 183 points 45 minutes ago
Yes. All of the operators (engineers, scientists, drivers, planners) live on Mars time, by shifting the schedule +40 minutes each day. This is order to maximize the efficiency of each sol. MB
