2009 Reviewed: Conferences, Panels, and other Speaking Engagements

Wednesday, March 24th, 2010

Finally back in Pittsburgh this week since I'm scheduled to give a talk about "Charity Fundraising in Social Games" for the local game developers association this Thursday evening at the Beehive. Which reminded me that I should finally get around to summarizing all the talks, panels, and speaking engagements I've ...

LOGIN Conference China Panel Reviewed on Twitter

Monday, May 25th, 2009

About two weeks ago, I spoke at the LOGIN Conference in Seattle on the panel about China. It was a very productive and enjoyable conference. I highly recommend it to others working in the industry and would like to thank the organizers for inviting us. Also, our panel was well-attended ...

Pittsburgh IGDA May News Update

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

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 ...

DevHouse Talk and ShowClix Launch Party Tonight

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

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 ...

Now posting once every leap year

Friday, February 29th, 2008

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 ...

Legal Strategies for Small Businesses Seminar

Thursday, November 1st, 2007

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?). It's been on my mind recently since attending Whitney Hoffman's excellent "Legal and Logistical Advice for your Startup" session at ...
