Some lurker!
Welcome, @bruces, and thank you for introducing yourself – not everyone does. My name is Alberto, and here is my own introduction: we have met a couple of times before, the first time was when you first visited Matera.
“A lurker” does not really do you justice. Several people in Edgeryders, myself included, are familiar with your work and admire it. I am actually just in the process of reading The Epic Struggle, which was recommended to me by several friends at MakerFaire Rome. Looking forward to getting deeper into this, we will probably talk about related topics at Living On The Edge 4 next week (in Matera…), for example during this session.
Let us know if we can do anything to help you enjoy Edgeryders – recommending projects you might like, or introducing you to people. The site is sprawling and messy, but the people tend to be friendly and smart. We normally do community calls on Google hangouts on Thursdays, but next week we will skip it because we’ll all be in Matera. Have fun and good conversations!
