I have a few engagements in the coming week in the San Francisco area and online:
- Later today I’ll be on the WordPress-focused podcast Dradcast.
- This evening there will be a Patent Happy Hour co-hosted by Engine Advocacy, EFF, and Automattic.
- On Thursday the 20th I’ll be speaking with Kent Goldman as part of the First Round Capital Dorm Room Fund Speaker Series at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
- Friday the 21st I’ll be talking with Reid Hoffman as part of the LinkedIn Speaker Series at their campus, and it will also be broadcast online.
- Tuesday the 25th I’ll be on the WP Think Tank panel discussion with a number of other notable WordPress community members.
- On Wednesday the 26th I’ll be interviewing Ben Rattray of Change.org at the Commonwealth Club.
You are a very busy guy.
Just a few things going on… 😉 Really looking forward to the WP Think Tank; sending a couple of questions later today.
One of our resolutions for this year is to become better “WP evangelists” within the music/arts community. Artists tend to love cool causes…and want to give back…particularly when the cause is hip.
Off to the ‘shed.
“Down with the .org for life.” Thanks for the motivation!
Thanks for sending questions in! Looking forward to them.
BTW, your photo with Kanye W., on your other blog, led us to @dondashouse, the non-profit in honor of his late mother, Dr. Donda West.
As a result of your blog post, we snagged a sweet sponsorship for their very first open house last November. “Proudly Powered by WordPress Since 2008!” is our tag on our AD / Tweets. @Rhymefest (Grammy-winner and WP user) hooked us up in a major way…with “tons” of nice Tweets.
“Down with the .org for life!”
I just received an email announcing your post. It is ridiculous that your photo is 8.9 Mega Bytes!!! Please let us not waste precious resources until we are 100% Solar powered 😉
Hey Matt, great meeting you briefly at The Commonwealth Club event yesterday. It was really fantastic hearing from both you and Ben. Keep up the awesome work, you’re definitely an inspiration to folks all over the place – myself included. I didn’t mention it last night, but the latest WordPress project I’m working on is ActivistLab.org. It definitely wouldn’t have come about without all the work you’ve been doing over the past decade, so just wanted to say thanks!
Nice conversation at the Commonwealth Club Matt — I wouldn’t have know about the event if you hadn’t posted it here — Cheers!
