Change of Place

In case you haven’t heard, last week I left PayPal to join LinkedIn. Leaving PayPal was the single most difficult decision I’ve had to make in my career.

Understanding that makes me want to see more. They warned me this would happen. The journey, the destination, the people, [...]

All along, I was billing these full day sessions of classroom instruction as Web Standards Training. But for one reason or another, people still wanted [...]

Interconnected
