With The Band

I can’t believe I missed it!

I love Craigslist. You see a lot of decent gigs, but there’s also a ton of crap.
And every once in a while, someone lashes out.

I made the WhyGoSolo Facebook Application, which just launched. If you join WhyGoSolo, you can have any events you create or sign up for show up on Facebook automatically, so you and your Facebook friends can know what you are up to.

We’re planning on adding a lot more functionality to it in the future. […]

Sorry for the week delay… hard to post when you’re in the middle of a mountain (literally).

I gave a presentation about Facebook development, and afterwards they asked to actually see an application being developed, so […]

I’ll be at WidgetDevCamp this weekend.
I’ve planned to talk about developing Facebook applications and how they “work”, with a particular spin on developing widgets. I may also be collaborating with one or two other people on some other topics - we’ll see how that plays out.
I’ll post slides after.

Modeled on organizations such as Y Combinator in Silicon Valley and Boston, and TechStars in Boulder, Colo., it plans to raise a fund of $350,000 to $500,000 to provide eight […]

I’m not a networker. I’ll give you a second to get over the shock.
I’ve always operated under the impression that in the technical world, doing great work far outweighs who you know and who knows you, and that “networking” is left to the business types. In the corporate world, this holds true. You do good […]

I heard some rumors over the weekend, and now TechCrunch is reporting that CompUSA is shutting down. Good.
They shut down the store nearest me in Maryland a while back. It was replaced by a Micro Center, a chain I had never heard of.
To put it simply, they nailed it. A haven for both geeks […]
