Following on from Five Quid and a Crate of Beer – Starting the New New Business it was interesting to read the New York Times article yesterday: no flotations this quarter (US side at least). The world is changing. Speaking of which, check out this post to see how social media is getting in on the recruitment process works: “pick-me” – and fill in the survey while you are there. I think that interviewer is going to be in for a surprise, unless of course they’ve already read the post!
The coming month is busy from an events perspective, so just the highlights: On Saturday the 4th of July is MediaCampLondon. Registration is free and it is a great opportunity to experience an unconference first hand. I look forward to catching up with some familiar faces, as well as meeting some new ones. Then on July the 10th is TechCrunch Pitch, I’ll be there watching the 10 slides company pitches/presentations. Should be interesting.
Lastly, Saturday and Sunday 19-20 July 2008 in Birmingham is WordCamp UK. The first WordPress WordCamp in the UK and a great opportunity for the WordPress community to get together. Book yourself in quick (register here). Not only will I be at WordCamp UK, but redcatco are an event sponsor, as well as providing the audio setup, we’ll be producing some podcasts of the event, if all goes to plan.
Thanks for the roundup. Given your recent comment on my blog about stress, I was pleased to find Fred’s thought on rest here: http://www.productivity501.com/interview-most-important-tip-for-getting-organized/858/
Thank you Matt. For other readers, here is the link to Matt’s post: The productivity I/O sweet spot, or Why balance is a bad thing
Hi Ben,
thanks for the sponsorship of WordCamp UK 2008 – hope to see you there!
Just to let you know, there’s also the WordCampUK Blog setup for the event – it’s building up some good info on pubs and bars, and there’s a couple of polls to vote in to continue the community spirit of the event!
It should be a great event! Looking forward to it!
