Day 3 of Drupalcon just wrapped up. I'd definitely have to say that I enjoyed today the most. I'm not sure if it was the sessions, just knowing more people, sleeping in this morning (soooo nice), but I just really enjoyed today.

I've learned a few lessons while I've been here at Drupalcon. The first lesson is that I need to blog more, a LOT more. I don't really blog because I don't have a lot of extra time and I honestly don't think much of what I do. I help a lot of open source projects because I enjoy it, not for the glory. However, now that I've launched my own company based upon consulting in the open source world, I definitely need to start telling the world more about what I do.

Case in point, I don't think I've ever mentioned on this blog that I'm a member of the jQuery project. If you've Googled my name, then you might know, but it's a major lapse on my part not to shout that to the world. I help jQuery manage http://jquery.com. I personally put together the jQuery plugins site using Drupal and the Project module. Today I had lunch with the maintainers of the project module and figured out that http://plugins.jquery.com has the second biggest implementation of the drupal project module on the net. Kinda crazy, I know.

So, I'm going to start blogging more about what I do. We'll see how it goes. I know I've promised more blogging before, but I've got a bit more motivation this time, as my bread and butter now comes from my work with Open Source.

Lastly, I was privileged enough this evening to finally meet John Resig at Drupalcon. Through helping with jQuery, John and I have struck up a friendship over the last year, but we'd never met face to face. John's currently lives in Boston, and showed me a famous local burger joint called Mr. Bartley's. If you're ever in Cambridge, you definitely need to eat there, it was awesome.
