New Directions

January 28th, 2011

Since the fall, work has really heated up.  Which is a good thing.  RBM has more work than developers these days.  We also have a monthly workshop now that has been well attended.  I’m also working on putting together a women’s study group in February.  All good.

But it means that I don’t have an oodle of free time for pursuing my Railscasts Project.  Since the summer, it’s lost steam.  Which makes me very sad because I gotten a lot of positive feedback.  And I’d like to continue.

As I’m blogging now, an idea occurs to me.  A way to keep this idea going and perhaps involve others as well.  Sadly, I haven’t the time to share at this moment.  I’ve just arrived at the She’s Geeky conference in San Francisco.  And there’s already much to blog about on that topic.

We haven’t started yet, but already I know I’m in for some mind expanding.  We’re in one huge loft with curtains separating the space for breakout groups later.  All the seats are arranged in circles rather than rows.  One area is just a bunch of pillows on the floor.  And there is a teepee in one corner.  I’m fascinated about how that might possibly be used.

It’s time to mingle and chat with the new arrivals, but I’m going to do my best to live blog as much as possible.
