Most of my friends here have websites that are sort of functional. I am somewhere in the middle. Here are some URLs that go to people that I met. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.speakeasy.org\/~pds\/\">Peter<\/a> &#8211; his website has been the same pretty much since I&#8217;ve known him but now he&#8217;s married and has a kid.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/abitofgeorge.com\/\">George<\/a> &#8211; actually a lady, she is looking for work after doing cool things at Flickr for a long time.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mikemccaffrey.net\/\">Mike<\/a> &#8211; I sort of met at SXSW and now we&#8217;re twitter buddies enough so that when I had a few free hours I could tweet &#8220;you free?&#8221; and he was like &#8220;sure&#8221; and we chitchatted about drupal and web nonsense and it was totally fun.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/jzissman.com\/\">Judith<\/a> &#8211; my long time friend and owner of Lyle, who always shows me a good time.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/bryanboyer.com\/\">Bryan<\/a> &#8211; probably the person I&#8217;ve known online the longest without actually meeting. His <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bryanboyer.com\/indyjunior\/\">indy junior<\/a> map graced my <a href=\"http:\/\/jessamyn.com\/me\/travel.html\">travel<\/a> page for a while. Now I use DOPPLR.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.courtneyskott.com\/\">Courtney<\/a> &#8211; I met her briefly at Burning Man but got to eat burritos with her She created the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.courtneyskott.com\/cloudbed\/\">cloud bed<\/a>, she is a genius.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/confectious.net\/\">Liz<\/a> &#8211; is at the Berkeley ischool, we talked about library stuff. She knows my friend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.walkingpaper.org\/\">Aaron<\/a>.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/orangecone.com\/\">Mike<\/a> &#8211; used to work at Adaptive Path with a bunch of people I know, we yammered on for a long time about&#8230; transportation systems.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/mikemonteiro.com\/\">Mike<\/a> &#8211; another Mike who, towards the end of the party when I finally said who I was, said &#8220;oh, from MetaFilter?&#8221;\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.muledesign.com\/about\/\">Erika<\/a> &#8211; went to Dartmouth and is taller in real life than she seems in her headshots.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/girlwonder.com\/\">Molly<\/a> &#8211; I met again at SXSW this year and we talked about academia and Princeton and pneumatic tubes.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/jenniferbove.com\/\">Jennifer<\/a> &#8211; gave us a sober ride home from the party for which I am eternally grateful.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/lookatthiscat.com\/39\">Yorvit<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/lookatthiscat.com\/38\">Roswell<\/a> &#8211; part of the household that took me home when I was trapped at the airport and fed me snacks and watched the Oscars with me. Wonderful folks, maybe without websites?\n<\/ul>\n<p>That&#8217;s who I know off the top of my head.
