  1. Something Reasuring about the Space Needle

    There is something very reasuring about the space needle. I have not been there yet, but it is THE dominant feature of the Seattle Skyline for me. I can see it from the couch where I sit writing this (and working almost every day) and it is visible from almost every intersection in my neighborhood.

  4. Decompressing from the OSCMS Summit

    I have just gotten back to Seattle from the Open Source CMS Summit / Drupal Con . My head is bursting with ideas. And it is going to take a few days to get all the ideas in order, but here is a quick list of interesting things that I will come back to in later blog posts:

  5. Actioncast with Sarah Pullman about Geek Yoga

    One of the more pleasant surprises at the OSCMS Summit was the Yoga for Geeks session led by Sarah Pullman (who I met at Web of Change 2005 . The Elevator Cast format came in a flash, but there is not always an elevator around, so I came up with the idea of a Staircast, but then sometimes you just want to talk someone and not go up the stairs or down the stairs, so what to call them? I am trying out the name “ActionCasts”.

  6. Staircast with Kaliya Hamlin

    There was no good elevator at UBC Robson Square, so I interviewed Kaliya Hamlin on the way down the stairs to Geek Yoga .

  7. Elevator Cast with Rich

    After dinner last night I had the opportunity to talk to Rich about his Slurpee.
