Web Afternoon 2012

5 hours + 18 fantastic speakers + 247 enthusiastic attendees + 8 wonderful volunteers + 1 great venue. That was Web Afternoon. 

Atlanta is very lucky to have a community strong enough to make this event happen, and I’m flattered to be a part of it. My gratitude extends to every single person who participated. 

There are simply too many tweets, posts, links, and emails from everyone to put in one place. Rest assured that I’ve read them all, and I sincerely thank all of you for the kind words. Most of all, thank you for being such a great community, and letting me be a part of it.

We’ll do this again.

Homemade Greek Salad

Here’s a super simple and tasty salad you can make in 3 minutes. I make it in the morning and pack it for lunch at the office.

• 1 - medium cucumber
• 1 - medium roma tomato
• 1/2 cup - crumbled feta cheese
• 3 tbsp - light greek vinaigrette
• 1/3 cup - Kalamata olives (hat tip @stefsull)

Just chop up the cucumber and tomato, put the chunks in a portable bowl add the feta and vinaigrette, put the lid on and shake it gently. Put it in the fridge in the morning when you get to work and by the time lunch rolls around it will be well mixed, seasoned and delicious.
