I’ve already talked about the conference once, but I thought I should address another point. I’m not a business prodigy or anything like that, but I try to listen and read as much as I can. Lots of people have complained that the advice at Startup School was conflicting. Other than the people who spoke […]
<em>While on the train heading to Paul Graham’s Startup School, I brought along quite a bit of reading material. I was hoping to sleep, but I was also hoping to catch up on some reading while I couldn’t be distracted with various tasking, email, etc, etc.</em> For example, the first thing I read was an […]
I'm writing this while sitting in the San Francisco airport about 8 hours after the conference ended. As always, previous coverage is available here: Day 1, Day 2, Day 2 – The People, Day 3, and Day 3 Part 2. This morning you could tell that people were feeling it. The audiences were much quieter […]
If you read the first version of this post on Friday, my apologies. I realized that I left out some important information, so I've expanded it and filled in some of the gaps. I'm a bit more coherent this time around and I have a AC power, so it will be better for everyone. I'm […]
I'm writing this coverage of Day 3 (Thursday) during the tail end of Day 4 (Friday). Previous coverage is available here: Day 1, Day 2, Day 2 – The People, and Day 3. Update: A new and improved version of this post is available here. I'd recommend reading that one as the information and detail […]

This week I'm attending the Zend/PHP Conference & Expo in San Francisco and I thought I'd share some notes on the initial presentations. Just for refence's sake, this is being written on Wednesday (10/19) even though it won't go live until Thursday. So if dates seem a bit screwy, just relax. Also, coverage of Day […]
This week I'm attending the Zend/PHP Conference & Expo in San Francisco and I thought I'd share some notes on the initial presentations. The first day (18 Oct) was made up of 3 hour long tutorials. I went to XML, Web Services and PHP (SOAP & REST) by a smart guy named Christian Wenz. The […]
How do you deal with a changing plan? Since all plans seem to change all the time, maybe this is better phrased “how do you deal with plans”? Here I'm going to share my plan to get me from Washington, DC to Startup School in Cambridge, Mass and how the team managed to deal with […]
If you're interested in my travel problems, I'll post those tomorrow… Just as a hint, have you seen Planes, Trains, and Automobiles? There were a number of people live blogging from Startup School, but I chose not to in order to be able to focus on what was being said and the discussions of those […]
