FurcoNZ 2011 was awesome! |
Our annual furry party, FurcoNZ, is over for another year. The crowd was a bit smaller than last time, but was still an awesome group to hang out with and I had a fantastic time... apart from all the kitchen work, perhaps. :)
So... see you all next year, I hope!

A new entry, finally... |
It's 2011 already, so yeah, I really should post something. Xmas/New Year's break was great with lots of drinking, eating, and catching up with friends and family.
Back to work after that wasn't so much fun, then things got worse when my n900 smartphone died on me two days before I left the country for a Linux conference in Brisbane.
However the flooding that Brisbane was still recovering from made my problems seem minor, and LCA was a fantastic conference again this year. Check out the talks posted on blip.tv if you're interested.

Summer 2010 |
It's been a busy summer, so that will have to be my excuse for this being yet another late update.
First highlight was LCA2010, my first ever time at a big tech conference. I thought I knew lots about Linux and Open Source already, so it was was a real learning experience to find out how much I didn't know yet. And I got my GPG key signed by interesting people, yay!
Next week was NZNOG'10, which was a bit smaller and closer to home, but still very interesting, and lots of Epic beer. And in between the drinks I learned I really should be implementing DNSSEC this year, and convince work we need to do IPv6 now.
So, after all that work, time for the annual trip to Sydney for Mardi Gras. The theme for the float this year was Studio Fifty-Fur, so shiny things and disco music all around. And lots of enthusiasm from the crowds watching us made it an amazing experience and totally worth ending up exhaused and soaked in sweat by the end. Special thanks as always to all the furs who got the parade entry organised.
Finally, back to work again, except up to Auckland first for short training course on using work's shiny new NAS system (and a side trip to the Angus steak house :)
So. Next update in 3 months, maybe. Hopefully with some FurcoNZ news. ;)
