How we run FedEx (on Quora)
Interesting thread starting over on Quora about how to run an Atlassian-style FedEx Day. If you’ve got other advice/experience/recollections about past FedEx days, speak up.
New Tool, New Look
So I just moved by blog over from TypePad to WordPress (.com). I’m not totally sure why i did it. I’m not promising that I’m likely to blog any more than I have been lately, which is certainly not much. But TypePad hasn’t really been going anywhere for a long time, and I wanted to [...]
Rands ♥ Atlassian
One of the prouder moments of my career at Atlassian: The more I use Atlassian products, the more I love how they channel my inner nerd. Right back at you, Rands. I’m also quite excited about his new book.
#munifail
Muni exists for you. Not the drivers, not the managers, not the politicians — you. And you have some difficult decisions to make about what kind of transit service you want to have, and what, if anything, you’ll do to get it. Complaining about Muni is easy. Owning it is not. via SF Weekly, and [...]
Two Gentlemen of Lebowski
Oh, internet, you complete me: Two Gentlemen of Lebowski
Great rant from Tim Bray about software development at in the enterprise

Encyclopedias aren’t the only thing you can do with collaboration
In January, Timothy Gowers, a professor of mathematics at Cambridge and a holder of the Fields Medal, math’s highest honor, decided to see if the comment section of his blog could prove a theorem he could not…. Gowers’s goals for the so-called Polymath Project were modest. “I will regard the experiment as a success,” he [...]
iPhone & the App Store
Update: As usual, Paul Graham said it better than I did. So I thought of a pretty cool iPhone application last night. It doesn’t exist yet. It would be pretty easy to build, it would scratch an itch I have, and it would likely be useful to other people. Enough that they might pay a [...]
At long last, your days are numbered, IE6!
Google has finally given Microsoft Internet Explorer the big kiss-off it so richly deserves. Read about it here: Google, you clever bastards, from Charles Miller More technical details about Google Chrome Frame, from Jim Ray. Over the past 15 years IE has wasted countless hours of my time, as well as the time of every [...]
Adventureland
Perhaps September in too early to make this claim, but I just saw one of my favorite movies of 2009: Adventureland, written directed by Greg Motolla. Motolla also directed Superbad, which was one of my favorite movies of 2007. The movie’s marketing campaign has traded heavily on Superbad’s reputation — in fact, based on the [...]
