Most of the people I only know online. So I&#8217;m walking around introducing myself to various folks. Some I already knew and some are new. I wanted to make a point of speaking to <a href="http://blog.talbott.ws/">Nathaniel Talbot</a>. I saw him at breakfast and walked over to re-introduce myself. There were a couple other guys there with him whom I also introduced myself. One of them introduced himself simply as &#8220;Matz&#8221;. Pause. Click. &#8220;Oh, hey! Thanks, man.&#8221;</p> <p><span class="caps">BTW</span>, if you can hear my voice and want to hook up to talk about emacs and ruby or something, let me know. I&#8217;m &#8216;lathinet&#8217; on <span class="caps">AIM</span>. My cell is 513-295-2844.</p> Fri, 20 Oct 2006 09:52:16 -0500 urn:uuid:03a1d908-4bd6-4dfb-bdfc-bc0dd9132f07 Doug http://blog.lathi.net/articles/2006/10/20/rubyconf-2006 Ruby on Rails Community Ruby rubyconf2006 <p>Hey Lathi,</p> <p>I&#8217;m not sure if you remember me from #photogeeks, but I just checked out Rosetta Stone today as I&#8217;ve been wanting to learn another language and I went through some of the online tutorials, and I have to say, that&#8217;s a pretty sweet website and a nice piece of software to go with it. Freaking sweet dude! Keep up the good work.</p> Fri, 20 Oct 2006 13:35:49 -0500 urn:uuid:a91bdaae-1d42-48f2-8e1e-b1dec9720d46 http://blog.lathi.net/articles/2006/10/20/rubyconf-2006#comment-286
