    Today is Not Me-Ha day, its You-Ha day started by micah
    This post is not about me. Not in the slightest.
    The biggest lesson I have learned in my crazy life is that I am happiest when I see the people around me laughing and smiling.
    So, today, in a very unlike Micah way, I am going to highlight the people that have made me smile this week.

    Comment Of The Day started by micah
    Disqus offers a new feature, similar to the one on tumblr, to reblog comments. I have begun to get more comments, and each day (or so), I will follow Fred Wilson and Bijan Sabet’s lead and reblog one comment.
    I really liked this well thought out comment by Roz. The fact tha

    Title says it all. Went to go see Ratatat at the Gothic Theater in Denver. Had a crew of 13 or so people, and we rocked it old school. Dont believe me?

    Happy Blog Day - 2 Days Late started by micah
    I am never on time for any thing that appears to be holiday related. My sisters get excited when I wish them Happy Birthday in the correct month. My grandmother fains a heart attack when I am within 3 years of her actual age.
    So its really no surprise that I am two days late on [...]
    Wheels on the Bus Go ‘Round and ‘Round started by micah
    When I was in my teens and early twenties, I taught swim lessons. My students ranged from 6 months old to 60 years old. It was something I truly enjoyed, and based on what other people said, I was pretty good.
    There was one thing about swim lessons that I absolutely abhorred. It wasnt gettin

    I dont vote.
    Seriously.
    I dont vote for one simple reason.
    Our democracy, which is a representative democracy is built on the concept of a small number of people representing the masses.
    I am one of the masses.
    Therefore, I want someone that represents the things I believe.

    Of all my tattoos, this one gets the most attention. Everyone that meets me for the first time, and sees it, tends to ask the same question: “What does it say?”
    Now something most people dont realize, is that it is actually kinda rude to ask about a person&%2

    I was tagged in a “meme” post by Chris Brogan which is quite a seminal event for me. You see, I am new to this whole social media thing. Just about a year ago, I started blogging. It was a little blog (it is still a little blog), but it was mine.

    Comment or Blog Post? started by micah
    So many of you might know that I am relatively new to the blogging world. This blog was started in 2007, and really didnt get started until the fall.
    I have read again and again that blogs are conversational media, not single points of information, like an online newspaper. So, when I see
    3 Rules of Gnomedex 8.0 started by micah
    Yesterday morning, I got home from Gnomedex 8.0 and after 24 hours, I have finally been able to distill the conference. It was my first time attending Gnomedex, but not the first time hearing about it.
    In 2000, I worked at a startup in San Francisco Bay Area. One of the developers suggeste

    So I am starting to get pitched more and more on this blog. Nokia wants me to go to Helsinki, ad networks want me to join them. Basically, I am where it is at.
    But, please for the love of all that is holy, be smart when you pitch me.

    TechStars Shine started by micah
    As I sit here in Seattle, in yet another hotel on yet another business trip, I have a few moments to reflect on the growth of the Techstars 2008 teams over the course of the summer.
    Reflect? What happened to the good ol’ Micah snark?
    Good point.

    Why I Live In Boulder? Mercury Poisoning, Of Course started by micah
    Why?
    Its my favorite question. I ask it of myself quite often, and of others a bit more regularly.
    Last night, after about 60 pieces of sushi or so, as I was standing back by the bar talking to our awesome bartender Jen, I got my answer.
    In Boulder, the tech community is pretty tig

    Every morning, I let my two dogs outside into the backyard to do their business.
