Topic “me”

Last week when I was in NYC for MothersClick meetings, I met for an interview with Jerad Bitner and Dave Burns, both developers at SonyBMG. These guys run a site called DrupaLMAO, a Diggnation inspired site that posts weekly videos talking about the Drupal community.

So we like to have a lot of fun at MothersClick, and our latest joke certainly takes the cake.

Everyone seems to think I am indeed Matt Lauer‘s long lost twin, so much infact to post it on Digg.

So what do you think? Leave your comments and Digg the story if you agree :-)

At the end of last week’s TWiT episode, Leo and company talk about the new TWiT.tv site. A clip of that can be listened to below.

Also last week on the Lullabot podcast, Jeff and I talked with Leo about his new site. Have a listen as we talk about the site, how it was conceived and built, and discuss a few of the problems we ran into.

In episode 25 of Inside the Net, hosts Leo Laporte and Amber MacArthur talk with my co-worker Jeff Robins about Drupal. Jeff explains why we’re using it as the choice CMS for many of our clients, including the redesign of the TWiT.tv site and the new MTV UK site.

Not only that, but towards the end Leo speaks highly of our work, how stable Drupal is, and how I’m doing such as kick @$$ job.

“Ted, you’re such a f#@*ing pilt (prolific Ivy League trailblazer).” – Liza

That’s a pretty succinct way to describe me. I like it.

From a quote on one of the pictures taken in London:

Ted definitely looks like a BMW driver. Leather gloves, mirror shades, the works. In fact, I think I’ll refer to him as “Driver S” in my imagination from now on. – thedaniel

‘Nuff said.

Thanks to Emily for snapping the photo!

A few weeks back, Leo Laporte approached Lullabot about developing the new TWiT website. Well we gladly accepted, I mean, this is Leo! So I was put in charge of developing the new site, and deviating a bit from our usual consultant based contracts, we took the entire development for this project in house so I could really work my magic :-) Well I have to say, this site is coming out amazingly well and just a few days ago we gave Leo a sneak peak.

What we didn’t realize was that he was going to plug us like crazy on episode 47 of TWiT (circa minute 53). His podcast is listened to by at least 250,000 people a week and is consistently in the top 10 podcasts on iTunes. A clip of what he said about us and especially, about my work, can be listened to below. Wow, thanks Leo! I do have to agree with him, this is some of my best work to date, a culmination of 7+ years of web design experience. ;-)
