I’m psyched today because a cool consulting opportunity I’ve been excited about for a while has finally coalesced. It’s still in stealth mode, but I can say that it’s a small venture with some folks I’ve really enjoyed working with before. It is not a Dew-brewed idea to jump-start “Web 3.0,” whatever that’s going to be. It’s just a good thing I feel good about helping out. I’m extra excited because it’s another chance to flex the muscles I started training in the early days at Netflix.
Those days were some of my favorites in my entire professional career, so I’m always excited to work with another newly-hatched organization. I love the clean slate, the opportunity, and the limited resources that demand and inspire creativity. Most of all, I love the camaraderie.
Unfortunately, we’ll probably be building it with Rails, which is only bad in that I’ll owe Pete Forde a beer. Can I write off a bad bet come tax time?
Once again, into the breach!
