This Friday: “Side Projects That Ship” at WebVisions Portland

Published on May 6, 2014

This week at WebVisions Portland, I’ll be giving a brand-new talk called Side Projects That Ship:

Starting a side project is easy. Finishing one? That’s a whole lot tougher. Is there a secret to being prolific part-time? What separates the countless projects languishing on hard drives from the few that see the light of day? In this dynamic session, you’ll learn how to identify your best ideas, focus on the right goals, eliminate cruft and maintain your interest level so you can complete your labor of love without losing sleep, your job or your mind.

I’m currently scheduled for Friday, May 9 at 1:15pm. I hope you’ll join me for a fun and frank discussion of what it takes to finish our passion projects!

The day before, I’ll be appearing at OMSI with my Backabit cohort Tim Sears for Play/Interact, an event celebrating Oregon digital creativity. We’ll be showing Lotsa Blocks, Ramps and a very early prototype we’ve never shown publicly. The event is free with the price of museum admission, see OMSI’s event page for more info.
