Going To Gnomedex 5.0

Sunday, March 20th, 2005

It’s official… I just registered for Gnomedex 5.0
I wasn’t able to make last year’s Gnomedex, but the amount of friends and contacts I made at Gnomedex 3.0 in 2003 such as Mike, Tom, Dave, KB, JR, Jim, Technodaddy, Jon, Mr. Pirillo (himself) and everyone else was worth a zillion times the price of admission.

Gnomedex Day 2 (Later Afternoon)

Saturday, July 26th, 2003
