Technical Blog Post


Abstract

Introduce yourself

Body

From an early MDM Workbench news site, the MDM Developers community has evolved and grown to a group of over 200 members, and it would be great to take a break from the usual posts and forum discussions to find out more about some of you with a quick blog interview. Whether you're a new member or a long term contributor, please say hi and tell us a little about yourself.

Feel free to leave a comment and answer any of the following questions that resonate with you, or add your own questions instead. This is just a casual blog interview and meant to be more like a real world conversation, rather than a formal resume or biography!

For fun, and a bit of encouragement, I have a few limited edition MDM Developer community stickers to give away!

Here are a few questions to get you started:

  • How long have you been working with MDM?
  • What did you do before that?
  • What inspires you in your work?
  • What are you passionate about?
  • If you were stuck on a technology deprived island, what single technology could you not live without?
  • What book are you currently reading?
  • What has been your biggest surprise you have witnessed in the technology industry?
  • Is there any technology that you think should get more respect and adoption but does not?
  • What is your favorite technology that fizzled or failed to live up to the hype?
  • Any new technologies that you think are about to break into the big time?
  • What future technology would make your life easier?
  • How do you prefer to find answers to your questions?
  • How are you using social networking today?
  • How could you see yourself using it in 5 years?
  • What are some of your favorite websites/feeds/twitter accounts to follow?
  • What publications / websites do you read / visit?
  • Where can we find you on Twitter, LInkedin, Facebook, and other social spaces?
  • Are you planning to attend any events where you are likely to meet other MDM developers?

Update: Unfortunately no one replied in time to claim the ticket that prompted this blog post. Luckily if you're one of the first to reply, you could still get one of these, much more exclusive, MDM Developers stickers!
