- I am pleased beyond punch with this new lock screen. 😊🥰💃
- I'm not saying it's not a metaphor for that. 😁
- @chadwhitacre.com are the clips of hard labour moving huge rocks a visual metaphor for open source maintenance? 😄
- It's true. First episode is up! 🙏
- I'm planning to be in New York City next week. Anyone wanna meet up in Times Square on Tuesday afternoon to watch @opensourcepledge.com go live on Nasdaq Tower? :-)
- Excited slash terrified for this Thursday. 🙈 🥺 💃
- New show coming to the Syntax world beginning May 1 starring @chadwhitacre.com
- I am excited to visit Community College of Beaver County next week to lead a discussion with students on the Open Source gift economy and its implications for the future of business, marketing, and economics. Thank you to Dr. Jodi Carver for the invitation! 🙌

- TIL (four years late) that Audacity got bought. It was my go-to example for “community-driven Open Source UX sucks.” Now I guess it's my go-to example for “company-backed Open Source UX sucks.” 🫠 librearts.org/2021/05/ulti...
- New show on track to launch on @syntax.fm before the end of the month ... and because I'm me you can get a sneak peek in the @opensourcepledge.com Slack. I would value your feedback! 🙏
