taking this show on the road
Although it's been quiet here, it's been an intense couple of weeks offline. I've resigned at Griffith and accepted a new job down in Sydney (more on that later, no doubt). I will in fact be living in Sydney by the time Web Directions rolls around - yes, even though it's just weeks away!
So not only will I be a speaker, I'll be a local. Albeit a local whose feet have barely touched the ground...
At this point all I can really think of to say is 'moving interstate is an utter pain in the arse'. Not the most eloquent sentiment, but true nonetheless :)
Congratulations. I'm looking forward to hearing more about your new gig if you blog about it, and about the conference too. I wish I could be there in September.
Good luck. Moving interstate is probably as much of a PITA as moving overseas really, except the language difficulties don't seem so great.
At first.
I'll be thinking of you guys in September as I sit through fascinating meetings about how to get the web designers of the world to understand mobile as part of the web, rather than some seperate world that should be someone else's problem. It's pretty much like accessibility, except 10 years later.
PS When did blogger put the ^$#&%^*ing CATCHA on?
Back to the fold like a pure-bred code monkey, eh mate? :) You know you'll be missed here in the halls of academia, hopefully your legacy of positive policies will continue to be implemented. Fingers crossed!!
As for September -- "Web Directions, f*** yeah!" ;D
Can't wait to see you here, mate. I'm still pretty new myself, so we can rock this town together!
Woah! Big change! Is it your first long distance move? They do suck... Shame I won't get to WD to meetup :(
Hope you get online at home quicker than Andrew did ;)
(Blogger's had a captcha for ages!)
You're just lucky you skipped out while I wasn't there.
Swine.
Hope it's all going well, say hi to Jeremy Keith for me.
