  • FYI – A Is The Oldest Child

    There are always ‘puzzles’ and looming #ToDos on the horizon wearing us down and sticking in the back of the brain and it all boils down to not prioritizing it.

  • Who Down With OCP?!?

    YEAH YOU KNOW ME! I went to six conferences in forty eight days and that’s just a bit overwhelming. I had this abstract idea that it was over the course of the around eight weeks or so but then I looked at the actual dates and pulled it up on a calendar calculator and now…

  • My Notes From Adam DuVander’s Developer Content Marketing Workshop At DevRelCon London

    I know what you’re thinking right now. “It’s been umpteen weeks since you’ve written on this blog and THIS is what you’re going to write about?!?” Yes, I totally used quotes because THAT is EXACTLY what you’re thinking. Yeah, that’s right, THIS is what I’m writing about – so sit back, buck up, and get…

  • How To Pass The Torch Without Dropping All The Balls

    Spoiler Alert: communication is key. I’m putting together an abstract with a couple of fellow #DevRel liaisons on how we managed to pass (and drop!) responsibility of an open source community. We’ll submit to a couple of upcoming conferences over the next year and see what happens. Cause you never know until you try. We’ll…

  • So Then What’s Next?

    Okay, so I’m back at work one hundred percent which means a couple of next steps are happening within the next six to twelve months. Career-wise. It’s time to apply to CFPs again. A few in particular are kickass / relevant / on my radar / wouldn’t it be super keen to do / omgomgomg.…

  • Are You Digital Or Analog?

    On the one hand, yes, of course I CODE, therefore, I must be all digital all the time, right? But, no, I love my moleskine everything – okay, just an agenda and a notebook. But, still. Totally analog. I love the feel of WRITING notes with a pen and paper and then referring to those…

  • Do I Hear TWO?!?

    Yesterday I took a day off and that’s just fine cause #whynot but today I was back on. And not only was I back on, but it was Father’s Day today and so a couple of weeks ago I picked out a present “from the twins” and went shopping with PROS.alpha and today *GASP* let…

RDO is a community of people using and deploying OpenStack on CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

  • I Would Buy It

    I have thought about some books I’d ACTUALLY like to write, as opposed to, say, NOT. In no particular order: – project do: goal achievement because SCIENCE social psychology research for goal achievement; applying it to a goal achievement method. invent or better define a method.

  • Thinking About Writing A Collaborative Book

    hrm… or maybe i should just write a book on my own. but something that i’m willing to write a whole hell of a lot about. and also speak a whole hell of a lot about. being a woman in tech. just another unicorn. a call to arms. a call to horns. the book i’m…

  • The Beginning of Something Beautiful

    Over the past few months, I’ve spoken with a few people about my idea, The Project, and started posting about it here and there. I spoke with friends and family about it and got some response via social media. Then I did this thing. This past weekend. I ran over to the big building to attend StartupWeekend Groningen 2015. Based on The…

  • The Project Pitch Debriefing

    A friend video taped what I actually said which was not nearly as eloquent as what I recently wrote and as I listen to people vote for their favorite pitches and discuss mine, I realize that I didn’t get the point across. People are discussing it in terms of education, which is true, it’s partially…
