2013: Slides, Videos and Articles
In 2013 I gave 7 talks, 3 videos and wrote 4 external articles (…and tweeted 3,516 times). I spoke at: Fluent Conf Online, JS Day Italy, Minnesota Developer’s Conference, Clockwork JavaScript, MinneBar, MN Web Design and JavaScript MN. Most of the talks I gave were local to Minnesota because my wife and I had our first baby and I want to stay close to home. :-)
