Last week I flew up to Boston to hit up both Red Hat Summit and USENIX. I’ve posted about Summit before, so not much new, but my talk with Rafael from the NYSE (mostly Rafael’s talk), drew a standing room only crowd (correction: no standing room at all!), which was nice to see again. Red [...]

And I Hope Neil Young Will Remember, A Southern Man Don’t Need To Install Windows Anyhow
Posted: June 15, 2010 in linuxI’m just about done uploading pictures from SouthEast Linux Fest 2010. As Ian Weller mentioned, we had a pretty good random photo walk in the middle of it, and I think that’s a fine conference meme to continue in the future. But seriously. Damn. What a huge conference for being in Spartanburg, SC. No disrepect, [...]
I came up with this idea the other day and I figured it was worth sharing. It requires a web site that can run Google Analytics or a similar tracker, and a lot of web content. That means it really doesn’t work for everyone. The scenerario is this — lots of apps produce error messages. [...]
To everyone on Fedora Planet (and elsewhere) that may be interested in this, Puppet has a new module site (think CPAN) — check out forge.puppetlabs.com and the accompanying download/release tool, which is separate for now, but will be eventually released with Puppet itself. If you have Puppet module content you’d like to share, we’d love [...]
For those in the Southeast, a quick reminder to make your plans to attend South East Linux Fest. I’m going to be giving a talk on Puppet, and there’s already a pretty nice cast lined up including quite a few notables from Red Hat as well as Tarus from OpenNMS. I am not sure someone [...]
Reductive Labs recently renamed themselves Puppet Labs and as a result has a new website. I’ve been working on upgrading the docs section some, so be sure to check out docs.puppetlabs.com for more content, hopefully better arranged for new learners. (Much of this drawn from our Wiki, but some new, and organized). Feedback and contributions [...]
I noticed someone on Fedora planet posted a link to “PHP for Absolute Beginners”. Whether or not linking the full context of the book was actually legal, I should say that without even reading the text, I have two better links for you. here and here.
So I have twitter updating facebook and buzz. My blog updates my twitter, which updates my facebook and buzz transitively. My tripit updates my facebook and linkedin (and my calendar), which I update only by using orbitz. I could have twitter update linkedin, but I said no. Zenfolio updates buzz, but only buzz (I’m confused) [...]
A trip to San Francisco to sit on our Puppet Training class gave me an opportunity to visit a place I had long known about on Flickr… the San Francisco Airport BART Station. If you’re into traffic cone photography, you’re already in on it, I’m sure. Puppet training was remarkably informative … not only watching [...]
Gource is an amazing program for visualizing commit history in a git-based code project. What I like about it is that it can also show what areas of the project are active in an easy to understand way, to show whether there is community around a whole project or just aspects of it. What looks [...]
