Month: October 2003

At the risk of getting that shitty Geggy Tah song stuck in your head, props to the guy who cut me off in his minivan on Friday.
Guy: (FX, van skidding)
2sb: (FX, duck-fart horn)
Guy: , (leaning out of window) “Oh God, I’m really sorry! I didn’t see you!” (Starts to drive off)
2sb: “Hey, guy!”
Guy: “Yeah? Look, I’m really…”
2sb: “no, I just wanna say I’ve been riding for seven years and have been dangerously cut off by hundreds of people, and you’re the first person ever to apologize, thanks!”
Guy: “Yeah? Wow. Uhhh. OK then.”
So that was cool until ten minutes later when a van whizzed by within a couple inches of me and the guy tried to smack me in the head for fun. People are neat.

Last Friday, I had the opportunity to attend the
BloggingWorks workshop run by Coudal Partners
and 37 Signals. It was enlightening to see how weblogs can be used by business, and I had many opportunities to share my wisdom, surely the high points of the day, ha. If you’re a weblogger and are interested in transferring these skills to your day job or freelance work, it’s worth checking out. Jack Vinson took some notes at the presentation, a weblog in itself (Death to Powerpoint!). Sooner or later, all this work is going to pay off Bwahahaha.
