Will be travelling the rest of the week. Tonight it’s Denver to San Jose, for a client gig, then tomorrow night it’s San Jose to Seattle for some more work, returning to Denver on Friday. Unclear how much I’ll be able to post between now and then, but at the very least I’ll be blogging from the Rational Conference from Las Vegas Mon/Tues.
The main question at this point is whether or not I dragged my hideous travel luck with me from the East Coast, or whether I just needed a fresh new start at a new home airport. Can’t say as I’m all that optimisitic, but you never know I guess.
On meetups: my schedule for the next three days is very full, as these are 9-5 type meetings then off to the airport, but if you’re in San Jose tomorrow, Seattle Thurs/Fri, or will be attending the Rational conference next week I encourage you to drop me a line. I’ll work something out if it’s humanly possible.
Other random items:
- Sober.Q is doing a number on my various Inboxes; beginning sometime over the weekend I’ve been innundated with German spam.
- Wiki action: there’s been a bunch of spam (thanks to Andy and Tim Hardy for helping us clean it out), but some new content as well (my updated schedule among them). As a follow up on a post from earlier this week, I will indeed be posting the Solaris 10 piece to the wiki. I need to clean up a page or two of edits, and also resolve how to post it and respect people’s contributions. I’m not sure how – if people make substantive changes – to recognize them for their work. Anybody dealt with late stage wiki editing like before and have suggestions? Additionally, the piece will be released under a Creative Commons Non-Commercial license, so on the off chance it gets bought, how should compensation be handled? All questions I need to answer, but I’m looking forward to seeing what the reactions are.
- Dream Mergers: In the spirit of Ross’ Dream Mergers page and Josh’s Feedburner/Site Meter proposition, here’s a combination I’d like to see: Audioscrobbler + Emusic.com + Pollstar + Upcoming.org. Audioscrobbler watches what I listen to, and based on that Emusic alerts me to available tracks and Pollstar to upcoming concerts, which are then integrated into my publically available calendar. Would be interesting for me, anyway.
Will be back with you all as soon as I’m able.
