[17:26] <akgraner> pleia2, When are you all showing other people the new scripts
[17:26] <akgraner> I just want to make sure I am around and plan on being online at the right time etc..:-)
[17:27] <pleia2> akgraner: I'm thinking we do it around 8PM eastern on monday
[17:27] <pleia2> (that's 5PM for me, 00:00 UTC)
[17:27] <akgraner> that will work :-)
[17:27] <pleia2> great
[17:27] <pleia2> oh wait
[17:27] <pleia2> yeah, that will work
[17:27] <akgraner> great! thanks...

[17:28] <akgraner> No worries - Pete's in London next week so I'll have time then...
[17:29] <akgraner> pleia2, you and nhandler make putting together websites look easy...working on a new one for me and well it just makes me appreciate you all more and more. :-)
[17:31] <pleia2> practice practice :)
[17:31]  * pleia2 made her first website over 12 years ago
[17:32] <akgraner> Dang - I'm only going on year 3...
[17:33] <akgraner> I never thought I would need to scale my webpage to a full site due to various interests and stuff...heck I never thought I would have so many interests surrounding Linux etc..too cool!
[17:34] <akgraner> s/webpage/blog
[17:34] <pleia2> :)
[17:34] <pleia2> my website itself has kinda died these past few years
[17:34] <akgraner> when jono re-did his I thought now there's and idea....
[17:35] <akgraner> s/and/an even
[17:35] <holstein> im using those blogspot blogs
[17:35] <holstein> so easy to get up and easy to edit
[17:35] <akgraner> I'm modifying a wordpress theme
[17:35] <holstein> and google wants you to have good page ranking ;)
[17:35] <pleia2> oh wow, I haven't gone to his actual website in a while (just read rss feeds)
[17:35] <pleia2> this is different :)
[17:35] <akgraner> and Nick and Josh will handle the hosting and stuff for me
[17:36] <holstein> http://www.mikeholstein.info/
[17:36] <akgraner> pleia2, yeah I like the look of his...
[17:36] <holstein> not sure if thats what i'll do for the long-term
[17:36] <akgraner> don't worry jono I'm not copying yours :-P
[17:37] <akgraner> holstein, looks good though...
[17:37] <holstein> i think wordpress is slicker
[17:37] <akgraner> I <3 wordpress
[17:37] <akgraner> but that's just me :-)
[17:38] <holstein> yup... if i do something offically hosted somewhere, i'll do WP
[17:38] <holstein> maybe drupal
[17:38] <holstein> WP seemed a bit easier for me
[17:39] <akgraner> nods
[17:43]  * pleia2 now throughly unhappy with the text on her main site and needs to redo it
[17:43] <pleia2> (thanks akgraner! :P)
[17:43] <pleia2> :)
[19:11] <holstein> philipballew: may i query you to solicit a testimonial ?
[19:11] <philipballew> I would love to!
[19:11] <holstein> :)
[19:11] <holstein> actually, here it is
[19:12] <holstein> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/holstein#Testimonials
[19:12] <holstein> i dont think anyone will mind me spamming the channel again...
[19:12] <philipballew> nothing goes on here ever except weekends anyway
[19:13] <philipballew> sometime would you be able to do any sort of testimonial on mine?
[19:13] <philipballew> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/philipballew
[19:13] <holstein> philipballew: sure... to what end?
[19:14] <pleia2> yeah, you're already a member :P
[19:14] <holstein> anything in particular you are going for?
[19:14] <philipballew> there are other things pleia2 it gets looked at for also by others?
[19:14] <pleia2> typically you collect testimonals when you go for specific positions
[19:15] <pleia2> otherwise they tend to be woefully out of date by the time you actually apply, so you have to ask for them again anyway
[19:16] <philipballew> yeah, in a while I will be going for the ubuntu youth counsel position possibly. I have been helping a little more then asking on irc lately and thats picking up. later holstein I was meaning if i needed you'd do the same. haha not now
[19:17] <philipballew> about how long you think the recommendation should be for you dude!
[19:17] <holstein> nothing majore
[19:17] <holstein> major*
[19:17] <holstein> just a blip :)
[19:17] <holstein> whatever you think
[19:18] <philipballew> alright, Ill put a few sentences. what are you goin for
[19:33] <holstein> philipballew: ubuntu membership
[19:33] <holstein> next week
[19:33] <holstein> *sorry, i had a phone call...
[19:34] <philipballew> no problem. I can sit in on the meeting for you and if they want any voices or people saying. "yeah, this guy is awesome!" i can do that
[19:37] <holstein> hehe
[19:37] <holstein> philipballew: that would be great :)
[19:38] <nhandler> akgraner: The Fridge site was pretty easy since the theme was already made. I need to get around to writing up some info about myself to put on my site. I finally bought nhandler.com, but Im really only using it for a blog right now
