Chandler 0.6

Friday, January 13th, 2006

I’ve been waiting for Chandler for what seems like years, so I’m surprised I didn’t hear about this last month. Actually, I’m not surprised at all, given the workload of my Flickr book and my trip to Surfers Paradise.

ETech 2006

Friday, January 13th, 2006

Last year I promised myself that I’d go to O’Reilly’s Emerging Technology Conference. It looks to be an amazing event, one that I could see myself sitting in every session, and networking like mad.
This year, with my new ventures, it actually made more sense than ever to go. The clincher came when I heard someone […]

Last Day At Sun

Friday, January 13th, 2006

Today is my last day as an employee of Sun Microsystems. I’ve been here for 9 years.

I’ve always wanted to take a picture of a book I’ve written. The papers stacked high, just like in the movies. It doesn’t […]

Happy New Year

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2006

Well, I finally made it through 2005; one of the toughest, yet rewarding years of my life. Although it still feels like I have a little bit more to do, just hanging on to the end of last year.
My latest book, How to Use Flickr: The Digital Photography Revolution is nearing completion. I have just […]
