To Mexico

Tomorrow, along with the rest of Automattic, I am heading down to La Paz, Mexico for the twice yearly gathering of the company. The virtual company thing is great, but I still think it’s important to get everyone together a few times a year to connect and plan out the next 6-12 months.

    I enjoy your “virtual company” model and really, I’m going to try it on my own, by letting my people home, but puting them to work using the Internet. We’re going to have Saturday meetings, but that’s another thing.

    Nice – just like the Ubuntu developer conference. Now all we need is regular in step six-month releases.

    You should call it semi-automattic WPun or something :)

    Matt I recently lived in La Paz for over a year and loved every minute of it! You should check out some of the fishing photos and videos on my site from La Paz. In fact I will be posting another video in the next day or so. I also had a La Paz blog running for a while (http://www.monstertope.com/), you may find it interesting.
