I figured I’d start off the working week with a big announcement: I’ve landed a new gig. As of this Thursday, March 6th, I’m going to be working at b5media, a network of 320 blogs that gets a total of over 10 million unique visits every month.
Depending on whom you ask, my new job title will be “Nerd Wrangler” or “Technical Project Manager”. I’ll coordinate b5’s development team and their projects, as well contribute my own experience and expertise in both blogging and accordion-playing.
I’m going to have a rather interesting first day on the job. Rather than heading to the office, I’m heading to the airport and boarding one of these…
…because along with a good chunk of b5, I’ll be attending the South by Southwest Interactive Festival in Austin, Texas…
…as well as attending BarCamp Austin…
…where I plan to catch up with old friends and business associates and meet some new ones!
I’ll be staying at the ranch that b5 rented and attending the conference, taking copious notes and photos (and posting them here) as well as meeting up with the b5 bloggers and development team, who come from all over.
I’ve mentioned it before, but I’ll say it again:

It’s Sunday, and it’s time for another “picdump!” Here are the memes, pictures, and cartoons…

This stuff makes for amazing fried rice or musubi (a.k.a. “Spam sushi”).

Congratulations and good luck with the new job :)
new? didn't we just recently read a "new job" post from you? oh there is a story there i imagine...
Dude, I can't keep up with your new jobs; you're cutting a swath through Tornoto's employment statistics!
@AKMA: Well, it'll give an actuary a much-needed diversion from the normal grind of employment stats. It should also give my accountant something interesting to do come tax time.
Joey, welcome aboard mate, hopefully you stick around here long enough to at least get proper business cards ;-)
See you at SXSWi!
