Feed Description: A personal blog about technology in general, .NET in specific, and when all else fails, the real world.
Gordon and I go back a couple years. He was one of the core four founders of Denver Pragmatic Practitioners. His love of languages gives him unique perspective (for example, knowing that every SOAP interface deserves a REST counterpart for the coders outside of .NET and Java). I worked briefly with him at NewsGator, where he would regale me -- unintentionally, no doubt -- with stories about how his homemade blog engine was setting his shared server on fire. His polite but firm hosting company was showing less of the former and more of the latter, so the writing was on the wall.
I made it my duty to get Peter and Gordon together so that we could grow our tiny little community by 33%. I hadn't announced anything because I was curious to see whether Gordon would be attempting to bring in his old content. Since he's started posting, I figure it's time to let the cat out of the bag. :)
Welcome, Gordon!
P.S. We're not done growing... watch for an announcement soon!
