A good evening 2004

Today was great. A generally satisfactory workday - alas, the last full one with the great intern we've had this summer - followed by two events full of cool web geeks. First was the Movable Type 3.1 release party hosted by the fine folk of Six Apart at (my SOMA favorite) Varnish Gallery on Natoma near the MOMA. Great venue full of bloggers & friends. Best part: seeing Doug Bowman smiling and moving easily, well on the way to recovery from his nasty back injury. Second best: happy, relaxed, successful Mena and Ben. They all deserve this goodness in their lives.

I got to hang out with many fun people including Zack Rosen (hi!) whose name kept ringing a bell all evening until, during our walk to the W hotel for LobbyCon in the bar, I found out he'd worked on the Dean campaign. I'm sure I'd read posts of his in the Dean blog or something. Funny that I hadn't put the name together with the face that was familiar from other web geeky events. Anyhow, nice to socialize a bit with him and lots of other good folks, new friends and old.

All in all, a fine evening.

Blog (noun) A weblog or similar brief journal usually containing links and commentary thereon. Term coined by Peter Merholz.
Visit Typepad or Blogger to start your own. (I began with hand coding, then switched to Blogger when it first became available, then to Movable Type when I wanted more control over my weblog and to have it hosted at a place of my choosing (Hurricane Electric). Now I use Typepad, built by the same folks who made Movable Type and I love it).
