Looks like I forgot to mention that earlier this month I gave a presentation on Django and high availability and distributed web applications at Codepalousa. Went well, with some great participation from the audience. The only negative I came away with was that it was a very Microsoft centric technology event. Not much room for FOSS. Luckily I was able to change that a little bit :)

I was working the booth for Comodo Group this week at RSA. I'm too tired to try and do a proper write up right now, I'll try to do one early next week, after I have had time to rest.

First BGLUG of the 2011 Sat, 15 Jan 2011 09:42:25 -0500

Today I'll be giving a short presentation on the Awesome Window Manager. This should go fairly quickly, so if there is time I'm going to fill in with using GIT to manage your configuration files so you never end up with a broken config again.

  • About The Author

  • This is the definitive blog for the musings of Brian Smith. I've been a programmer / sys admin for most of my life. I don't have much to say, I work, I enjoy my family, and every once in awhile I'll dump a little something I want to keep track of here.

    Currently I am the CTO of DNS.com where we provide geolocation based authoritative DNS services for the masses. I also have been working on drafts that are submitted to the IETF to the dnsext working group.

    In the past I have been involved with organizing various user groups, including an off and on again 2600 group. Also I have been involved with the development of Seclude, an open source secure instant messaging platform as well as Sliker, a project that later developed into plasma for the KDE desktop environment.

    Additionally I am an avid home brewer making my own beer. Everything else should be below or to the left.

  • I'm a Linux and BSD user, and lean heavily toward the use of OSS vs certain other commercial solutions.
