Life update + a couple of talks I gave recently

18 11 2010

I haven’t blogged for a while but I’m back. Here is a quick update of what I’ve been up to:

  • I’ve joined Intellum last year and we are about to launch the product I’ve been working on: GroupDock. We are currently in private beta. I’m pretty excited about what we’ve built and would love for you to check it out. If you want a beta invite, please post a comment below with a way for me to send it to you (email, twitter) and I’ll send you one.
  • Since I work from home, I’ve also taken the opportunity to travel a bit. This year, I’ve spent 3 months in Buenos Aires, Argentina, 2 weeks in Sao Paulo, Brazil and I’m about to leave for Montevideo, Uruguay in a few weeks. I’ll be in Montevideo for about 3 months. I should be back in the Washington DC area by March/April.
  • With my friend Kevin, I’ve launched a cool website for foodies called TastyTogether.

I gave two talks in the last two weeks and I wanted to post them here also.

I gave the first one at the DC Ruby Users Group. The topic was SproutCore as I’ve been working with this new web framework recently. Below find the video of the talk. The quality is not great. I recorded it with my Flip camcorder but I had placed it next to the projector and it seems to have caused some interference.

However, most of the presentation is me doing some live coding and I had created a screencast where I went through the same tutorial. You can see this one below:

You can also download the whole screencast as a single file from here: Download Full Video Tutorial.

Also, yesterday, I got to talk about GroupDock at a local meetup. The event is called Startup Rockstars and it gives entrepreneurs a venue to showcase what they’ve been working on. The talk was very short (less than 6 minutes) and you can find the video below:

Hope you get to watch the videos and please give me some feedback/comments below.

I’ll try not to let a whole year go by before my next blog post :-)
