Third Post Already
Blog, Life, Technology November 1st, 2007
My god, I can’t believe I’m writing a third post already. This blogging thing is really catching on. What’ll I do next, start a flickr account? Oh wait…done already.
I updated my about page too. Figured that’s probably with a higher priority since it was just sitting there with template text all over the place. That’s as bad as buying one of those picture frames with multiple places to put your pictures and filling up all but one spot, leaving somebody else’s baby/dog/brother sitting there grinning on your wall like there’s some kind of inside joke in the room that nobody knows about but them. But of course your friends come over and ask you who that dog/cat/squirrel on the wall is and why they’ve never met them. Then you explain that it’s not your picture of a dog, just the one that target bought from some poor asian guy on the street for a $2.50 exclusive license. Then you realize that it’s not a picture of a dog at all, but actually a baby, and you and your friends really feel like jackasses now, all because you didn’t bother to take more pictures and fill in all the picture frames. Lessons from this adventure? Don’t buy those multi-frames from Target. But I digress.
Here’s what I put up on the about page, in case you never click on about pages and actually want to know what I’m all about:
My name is Chris Carter. I work for Confluent Data Systems, Inc, a small software and consulting company based in Wenatchee, WA. I serve as the CTO. I’m also a founder of the company.
We started Love Washington Wine, an e-commerce and marketing company focused on increasing and selling the Washington Wine brand. Love Washington Wine sells a variety of labels from many incredible boutique wineries in Washington State.
We’re also helping to develop US West Energy Solutions, a green energy product distribution company, including the Hallowell Heat Pump, Proliphix Web Enabled Thermostat, and Energy Tracking Web Enabled Meter.
I’m interested in all technology, science, wine, photography, politics, and life. I’ll probably blog about most of those topics.
