awards, speaking, and random bits
April 14th, 2009A quick all-over-the-place post.
MeshU
Once again thanks for the Mesh crew for putting on Mesh and MeshU in Toronto last week. Organizing events like this can be a thankless gig at the best of times. I was lucky enough to speak at MeshU and I will make excuses in saying I had little time to prepare. If you were in my session I hope I was better than a “gaping hole in the schedule”. Something tells me I won’t need an agent anytime soon to handle the flood of requests for speaking engagements.
Awards
While it technically is tooting my own horn, I’m actually tooting the horn for the amazing crew I’m lucky enough to spend my work days with. BrainPark was recently recognized as one of the “Top 25 Canadian IT Up and Comers” by Branham.
I’m more proud of this one, however, as it speaks more to how we do things rather than what we do. We’ve been recognized as one of “WorldBlu’s Most Democratic Workplaces 2009“.
In both cases, we’re recognized amongst some great companies so congratulations to everyone at BrainPark. I’d like to tell you to take the rest of the week of but that wouldn’t be very democratic of me.
