So this email news update for our local International Game Developers Association chapter might be syndicated on our blog. I'm just testing to see if we can basically cut and paste our email without having to reformat anything. Looks like yes. Also, I've gotten lazy yet again about updating my ...

One reason I like attending conferences in Pittsburgh is that you never know who you'll accidentally run into. With a relatively small and tight-knit tech/startup/gaming/social-media/etc community, you often run into the same faces time and time again. Like Nick said during his panel with Luke and Lynsie yesterday, it's less ...

This sort of last-minute announcement is probably better suited for Twitter, but I still have 20 more days until my annual twitter post on the 30th. So hopefully this short blog post will be sufficient to get the masses all atwitter.
At 7:30 PM, I'll be giving a short talk at ...

Tonight, I'll be at ITPittsburgh's first Connector event at the Altar Bar at 6 PM, talking about Dancetown. I've enjoyed speaking there before as panelist for Jessica Lee's Entrepreneurial Thursdays. It's a nice venue in a fun location, so please stop by (and RSVP if you can).
Next week, I'll be ...

I've decided to change to a new blog posting schedule, once per leap year. It's slightly less often than my one twitter per year policy.
But seriously, I won't be posting as frequently anymore. I've joined a new startup, Dancetown, as their new Director of Product Management, so I've been finding ...

This weekend, at the monthly board meeting of a local Asian-American association I serve on, we decided to finalize our integration with a similar, larger national organization.
Besides the standard adoption of their bylaws and other miscellaneous paperwork, we also need to fully convert our rebranding from PAAYPA (Pittsburgh Asian-American Young ...

So last Saturday, despite the bitter cold, I dropped by a MyHome2.0 Block Party that Jim and Lloyd invited me to. Above is a roughly edited video of the event (uploaded using YouTube's new Multi-Video Uploader, hooray for the increase from 100 mb to 1 gig!) and you can find ...

Last night I went to two very well-attended geeky events celebrating simultaneous momentous occasions. Yesterday was Pittsburgh Bloggers' third birthday and the birth of DevHouse Pittsburgh.
While our celebratory cake was not quite as geeky as the one pictured above, the room was packed and we even had some new faces ...

Hope everyone had a fun and spooky Halloween. Speaking of scary things, let's talk about how many new businesses and startups operate without qualified legal council or advice (smooth segue, right?).
