I'm Leaving SourceLabs

Tue, 29 May 2007 13:35:55 -0700

Just a heads up to readers of my blog.

You may know that SourceLabs hase employed me for the past two and a half or so years. But today is my last day at SourceLabs: my plans are to travel, take some time to think and adventure, and I plan on continuing to work on little projects and prototypes – that’s just what I like to do.

It’s been a crazy time here at SourceLabs, in most ways I couldn’t imagine a better job: design and build a website and then run and grow it. SWiK has grown from a small prototype I wrote 2 years ago to something that is serving 125+ pages on open source every minute to about a million unique visitors a month.

When SourceLabs started it was an idea with no name, and I started talking to Byron (SourceLabs CEO) about his ideas for a public community oriented website about open source software. After a while SourceLabs picked up a name, an office, we stopped meeting in coffee shops and out of our houses and got an office in Seattle. SourceLabs has come a long way since then, and I recommend highly the startup experience.

I’m going to try posting more often on my blog, however if you want to keep receiving new posts you might want to double check which url you are subscribed to and make sure it’s http://feeds.feedburner.com/AlexBosworth – I’m probably going to switch over to the domain I snapped up recently: alexbosworth.net (nothing there atm). I need to figure out blog engine stuff before I post over there, but if you subscribe to the feedburner feed you won’t even notice.

Anyways stay tuned I will probably continue to churn out little projects and such you may be interested in, or points on development, tech, and other fun stuff.

I Use OpenDNS

Wed, 23 May 2007 13:00:05 -0700

Comcast’s DNS servers are terrible. That’s why I switched to OpenDNS – it’s a good thing.

That being said, sometimes OpenDNS is annoying. Sometimes I see their ‘typo’ pages when I really shouldn’t be.

But their recent blog post shows how bad it could be, if you go with Google and Dell’s malware that now comes standard with your Dell.

I think this is a scaling issue with Google growing quickly. The basic philosophy of Google is good: make money through ads people actually want to see, remember the user is the customer not the advertiser. I like that philosophy, even though it’s lofty and idealistic. They should stick to it.

BTW here’s an example of Google’s typo squatting pages
