There's no Place Like ::1

This week, log, the company where I will start working on Monday, celebrated his 6th anniversary. It is marvelous to see a company that relies on open source technology growing this fast.

So, congratulations log! I and hope I can contribute for the your continuous success during the next year :-)

Next week I will receive intermediate formation on Object Oriented Perl with one of the greatest names on Perl community: Damian Conway. Damian Conway is well known for his excellent Perl best sellers Object Oriented Perl and Perl Best Practices. It is also one of the best speakers I ever met.

So I hope it will be a great time, and I hope that my OOP will get better because I really need it for my new job. Also, Damian will be giving a free talk Monday evening called Quantum::Superpositions that, from the abstract, seems to be one of the best things I will ever ear for a long time.

Oh, and thank you log for sponsoring my participation on this event!

Here I am reporting from the end of day 1 of Intermediate Object Oriented Perl formation. What I have to say? Damian Conway is just a wonderful person, and a really really good speaker.

I just loved the way that he introduced and explained object orientation in Perl. And it is a great value to ear Damian because he has a really understanding of Perl internals, so he can complement his theoretical explanation with technological details. Usually on formations like this, I tend to get a little asleep after lunch, but altough Damian was talking of things that I already know, it was a pleasure to ear him.

Lots of good jokes and an attention to different cultures make Damian’s presentations a “must ear”.

But the day is not over yet. Tonight Damian is going to have a free talk with the title Quantum::Superpositions where a Perl hacker is going to talk about quantum mechanics. I invited some friends, so we hope to have a great time together.

So here I am reporting from the nearest McDonalds :)
