Orbitz on

Cheers.

After nearly six years at Orbitz, and a lifetime of memories, I have decided to move on – my last day will be this Friday July 18th. I’d like to thank everyone for a good run and will be offering a toast of beer and tayberries Friday afternoon from my backyard. Enjoy and best wishes!

Through the generosity of some great friends at Orbitz we toasted beer and bourbon – here’s to you!

orbitz, open source and me

Some friends at work were recently interviewed by Matt Asay on the release of our monitoring software, ERMA, as open source – an unconventional move for corporate America.

We have a long and quiet relationship with open source at Orbitz. In the article Matt O’Keefe was kind enough to throw a compliment my way:

We have a history of contributing to other open-source projects. Brian Zimmer and others on the team have been very active in open-source projects.

QCon 2007 interview.

The video and transcript of an interview I gave at QCon 2007 are now available.

This was my first time giving a recorded interview and I’m finding it very weird to watch myself talk.
