A Very Humbling Thank You

I don't really know what to say...other than Thank You!

It started here:



Then here:



And then it continued...















How effin' awesome is that?!

We're not through yet though, Justin Kestelyn, aka @oracletechnet, also wrote up a nice little blurb on his blog.

As I just realized, Jake beat him to the punch.

After giving up on the effort just a couple of days ago...I'm working twice as hard to go now.

1. Oracle OpenWorld Blogger Pass? Check.
2. Time off from work? Check (finally).
3. Air-fare, hotel and expenses...in progress.

I don't know how to automagically update the count on the number of shirts sold...so it will be manual. The new site has a better margin of profit (plus lower-priced shirts), so pick one up and help a guy out. :)

I can't tell you enough how much this means to me. Thank you all so very much.

Blogging, FTW!

The meme has legs. You can track the tweets pretty accurately on search.twitter.com with "oraclenerd openworld".

Keep us updated with progress and any new developments. We can adjust strategy if needed :)

Oh, and Justin got his post out first.

I did see that. I left a comment to pointing to the new t-shirt site (which he seems to have updated now).

I've already got the RSS feed for that search. Come on! You've taught me well Master.
