Doug Holland’s Presentation

The unexpected snow storm on I80 prevented Doug Holland’s from making it to Reno last night. Instead of his presentation, we did several impromptu presentations. Ryan Polk gave a presentation on Code Craftsmanship. Jesse Anderson will spoke about trust and its implications in management and software and some advice he would give to his younger self. Then we talked about social object creation with sites like YouTube. Afterward, we talked about creating more social objects for the group, including recording the presentations and posting them on YouTube.

We will reschedule Doug’s presentation for later this summer and we apologize for the inconvenience.
