FUDCon F10 Boston, One Week Later…

So I am sitting in my hotel in Los Angeles, preparing to head back to Utah, its 2:37am PDT and I have been meaning to post the rest of my experience at FUDCon.  First off, I’d like to thank Mo and Ray for letting me stay at their home with them.  They were great hosts!  [...]

Okay! Who do I blame?

While I am working on a post-fudcon report.  Its kind of hard to work when the network continues to drop packets.  Currently, I’m on-site in Los Angeles, teaching a course.  Why, oh why does this happen? Cheers, Herlo

FUDCon Friday: A very, very, very long day – quite fun!

Got to FUDCon today after a nice semi-sleepy red-eye flight.  I was surprisingly awake for a person who has had less than 3 hours of sleep in the last 24+ hours.  As I arrived, following Max’s instructions to the Hyne’s Convention Center, an announcement.  The spins hackfest was beginning. I quickly grabbed some coffee and [...]

Prepping for FUDCon (T minus 12 hours)

As I was watching Dr. Who this afternoon during my packing up of my clothing and power cords for FUDCon tomorrow and Saturday, I was thinking a bit more about how I could help. It turns out, that while we have some great presentations, a suggestion was made to put the User back into FUDCon.  [...]

I’m Going to FUDCon

So it looks like my whining and moaning paid off!  I didn’t expect that anyone could help me, the money had been spent, things were cancelled and I was screwed! I recieved a comment on my blog from Mo inviting me to stay at her and halfline’s place for the weekend of FUDCon.  So nice, [...]

Anyone have a spare $600?

Welcome to my disappointment.  Welcome to my frustration.  Welcome, welcome to my not being able to attend FUDCon!  Did I mention I was frustrated and disappointed?  Well, if I didn’t, I am! Here’s the story. Many of you probably know that I work for Guru Labs, and as such, I teach Linux for a living.  [...]

Helping out at the Blogging 4 Business Conference this Friday

This Friday, I’m taking some time early in the morning, prior to work, to help a good friend of mine, Matt Reinbold with a conference which he’s put some serious effort, the Blogging for Business Conference. While it seems something ahead of its time, much of what Matt is hoping to share is to help [...]
