We won the Deloitte Fast 50 Rising Star!

In non-software-development news, I’m very proud of our recent Deloitte Fast 50 Rising Star award and wanted to share the video with you all. Paul does a much much better job of explaining what exactly it is we do, than I do. So if you’ve ever been a bit baffled, now’s a chance to get a 2 minute overview.

You get to see OrderPipe on the iPad in the video, chuffed to see software I’ve written getting some attention.

Normal (geeky) service will resume now – I’ve been trying out the Nexcess Turpentine extension for Magento Varnish, and will report on results soon. Initial impression is positive.

Export New Zealand Finalist: World Wide Access, and I’m on the FM!

Quick non-Magento related post. World Wide Access got to the finals of the Export New Zealand awards, we’re going to a flashy black tie dinner and everything, very exciting! Anyway, I just wanted to share this little sound byte because it’s my first ever (and probably only) 30 seconds of fame on the FM band.

If you don’t like the internet and want to hear it in the wild, it’ll play on NewstalkZB Drive show 4pm-7pm from Tuesday 7th June – Thursday 16th June 2011. You can tune in for some insightful discussion with Susan Wood while you’re on the way home!

Excuse the dry monotone voice – that’s just how I sound apparently.

PS: I haven’t been doing _much_ Magento development lately as you can probably tell by the lack of new posts, but I’ll post some articles soon, given all of the interesting news of the last weeks, what with Magento selling to Ebay, and details of the Magento 2 project being unveiled at the Magento Developer’s Paradise.
