Updates and things

I gave a talk at a meetup hosted by GoDaddy last Friday. I had a good time, and the comments afterwards were positive. More than one of the folks I talked with after the event asked why I don’t blog anymore. I have been a bit sparse in my blogging over the last few years, but I haven’t technically stopped….

Truth is that I spent a chunk of that time either on vacations, or in a job that wasn’t particularly interesting to me (work inspires blog posts). Of course, that excuse doesn’t hold up over the last three months where I’ve been in an extremely interesting role – just one that’s kept me extremely busy as well.

But, I was reminded on Friday, that even a few stories can strike a lot of inspiration and conversation with others, so I expect things will pick up – even if it’s just very short blogs posts.

Like this one.

But I’m going to kick off…

    Whew – what a week it’s been. There’s only drawback I can think of from being in Switzerland last week is that my work and meeting load this week has been nearly double. Given that I’m still catching up from my India trip last month, I’m quite thankful that my travel schedule is light in…

  • Personas

    I just finished a talk at QAI Testrek on using personas. Again, I do a horrible job evaluating how my own talks go, but people asked a lot of good questions at the end, and I didn’t swear too many times, so I’ll call it a success. The gist of the talk is that creating…
