I'll be at webdu on Thurs/Fri

Mon, 18 May 2009 15:34:00 -0700

I'm excited to say that I'll be attending webdu here in Sydney on Thursday and Friday this week. Looking forward to an impressive lineup of speakers.

I'm new to Sydney, so please don't be a stranger and introduce yourself, here's a picture of what I look like.

Also, I just found out about code-wars as well, not sure what to make of it, but sounds like a blast, I'll see you there.

Moving to Sydney

Wed, 06 May 2009 14:20:00 -0700

At 10:30pm tonight I will be getting on a plane to relocate to Sydney, Australia. The bags are packed, and I'm looking forward to the next exciting chapter in my life. As of Monday, my company was acquired by Thomson Reuters, and I will be working as an independent consultant for them.

I'm looking forward to getting involve with all of you in the CF community when I arrive. Don't be a stranger, please introduce yourselves as I hardly know anyone there. I'm really hoping that I can win a pass to @webdu in their twitter competition, it would be a great opportunity to make some connections. If you're on twitter I wouldn't mind a shameless plug for a ticket :) (@mikeschierberl).

Additionally, if you are in Sydney, I'd love recommendations on things to do/see from a locals perspective. I've been there a few times, but I will be coming with a clean slate and an open mind.

I'm not much of a blogger, but I saw that Ray released version 5.1 of BlogCFC, so I figured that now was as good of a time as any to start. Plus I have a new tool that I plan to release in the next few days. I'm pretty excited about it and hoping that everyone else will find it as useful as I do.
