Another Great Linuxfest Northwest
What an impressive LinuxFest. It felt really pro this year with big printed badges and registration. I would have been. Happy to have picked up my badge friday night if I knew what the crowd might have been Sat morning. The robot room was definitely Liam’s favorite. Thank you BAIRS! I really dug the competition…

Last happy thots on LinuxFest Northwest 2010 #lfnw

I was especially proud to finally shake Brian Aker’s hand and thank him for his work on memcached and how inspired I was about the ideas behind Gearman.

Remember “In the Trenches”? That’s How I Learned of LOPSA #lfnw
I chatted with a few of the guys at the LOPSA booth and mentioned that I first learned about LOPSA by listening to Kevin Devin’s In the Trenches podcast. This Friends In Tech show was insightful, informative and inspiring in that it presented intelligent and professional discussion about the profession of system administration, not merely…
