I had the unique privilege of interviewing William Gibson this year. Gibson is my favorite author and, quite literally, the reason I got into writing. It’s my squee moment and was really important to me. It’s a great interview – except for a little audio trouble. Check it out.

I had a fun opportunity to interview Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, bitcoin bulls, on the TC Disrupt stage. They were fun guys and had a lot of smart stuff to say about cryptocurrency. You can read more here.
My Everyday Carry
I’ve always loved Everyday Carry. It’s a pretty obsessive site dedicated to stuff people put in their pockets. They finally invited me to take part and it was great.
As you can see above, my EDC is pretty limited – I don’t have to fight off rabid dogs or look into utility ducts – so I’ve got my Omega, my Dad’s old British Navy knife, and my crazy wallet. I also talked a little about writing and creating. It’s a great site and a fun read. Check it out here.
Another Polish Interview
I’m apparently very well-spoken in Polish.
?Jak rewolucja w zakresie innowacyjno?ci mo?e konkretnie zmieni? Polsk??
Gdy Polska stanie si? ?r?d?em innowacyjno?ci, zmieni si? nie tylko charakter polskiej gospodarki, ale tak?e np. styl ?ycia, a wi?cej ludzi b?dzie chcia?o pracowa? na miejscu, ni? wyje?d?a? za granic?. Jest to bardzo wa?ne, poniewa? Polska od lat ma problem z drena?em m?zg?w, jako ?e m?odzi zdolni ludzie decyduj? si? na wyjazd za granic? i podj?cie pracy w innych krajach. A na pewno nie tylko rodzice takich os?b chcia?yby, by wr?ci?y one do Polski.
You Probably Don’t Read Polish But If You Do, Please Enjoy:

Honestly I don’t even know what I said.
