Hey, you’re invited! It’s free, it’s fun, it’s nerdy nirvana! Join us. I helped organize this year, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed for an epic turnout so invite your friends. ;-)

BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from attendees. It is an international network of user generated non-traditional social conferences— open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by participants — often focusing on early-stage web applications, and related open source technologies, social protocols, and open data formats. Oh and super fun!!

SSW2 was, in a word: awesome.

Here’s a little video from Q13 Fox (I make an itsy bitsy appearance about halfway through), but I’d also recommend reading Anthony Steven’s reflections on the weekend (as usual, he does an excellent job!).

I’ll be posting details about my team’s project soon later, must recover a bit first. Soooo tired. And happy. :-) Seattle rocks.

Ah, the Superbowl

And a little good, old fashioned slapstick… always a winner. :-)

Who is the biggest advertising loser of the Super Bowl? It appears to be GoDaddy, who started quite a stir on Twitter with their not only degrading but also blatantly stupid and absolutely uncreative ad campaign. People are fleeing the domain hosting company like rats off a sinking ship. This includes me. I had one single domain left there which I plan on transfering to 1&1 today. Not all publicity is good publicity, GoDaddy.
