Latest post to the blog.

Quoted: I recently attended a talk by Craig Sherman of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati about Corporate Structure and Common Problems. The event was organized by StartPad, an excellent Seattle-based entrepreneurial organization through which we rent our office space and hence get the opportunity to intermingle with and work alongside other startups.

The talk was great! I won’t summarize the entire thing, since you can find the deck and video here. But, I did come away with two high-level points that are arguably applicable even beyond corporate structures:

Latest post to my blog...

Quoted: I have found I can whip up a nicely laid out site that works across all browsers *much* faster with Blueprint than I could without it. As a result, I spend more time on creating business value and less time dealing with the many obscure bugs in Internet Explorer 6.
...
Having said that, I’ve had the opposite experience with other frameworks. This got me thinking, “What makes a good framework?”

Quoted: However, I found that only Wordpress gave me that “Aha! moment” you get when a product so seamlessly fits your functional needs and is fun-to-use at the same time. In fairness to Drupal, this is not particuarly surprising since:

I am trying (again) to establish a blogging habit.

Quoted: Not surprisingly, I use these microblogging services to broadcast “stream of consciousness” thoughts whereas I plan to use this blog for hopefully more thought provoking and “on-topic” posts.
...
Why two microblogging services then?

I have just started playing with this (http://mothinks.com) but like it so far. The blog this Fave points to is also using BlogEngine.NET.

Quoted: While I've very biased, I do really like BlogEngine.NET. It is a fine blog software and handles my simple blog well enough

1. Extensions Rock
Since almost everything the blog does has an event, it is so easy to extend the software to do whatever you can think for it to do.

4. Pages are first class citizens
While a blog is typically made up of post, pages can be an incredibly handy thing to have. In a personal blog like this one, it can make for a fine About me page, resume, or nice place for articles.

This is actually pretty good. It's architected sort of like wordpress and drupal in that it is very easy to plugin extensions, themes, etc. However, the extension model relies on events/delegates rather than simply naming conventions. You don't need to know C# unless you want to write your own extension.

Quoted: An open source ASP.NET 2.0 powered blogging engine

Quoted: The free, ad-supported blog site encourages users to keep online diaries they share and discuss with friends. It counts 14.3 million blog accounts and roughly 20 million visitors a month. Its writers publish more than 150,000 new posts a day.

I need to do this.

Quoted: Use it as an internal diary, a way of tracking each day so that a month or a year from now, you can look back at where you were and how you dealt with the issue of the day. Even if no one else on your team reads your blog, the act of creating it will be worthwhile.
