Send Me To Startup School

So, I haven’t asked for donations on the internet since my wife went to Peru a few years back. But, I’ve been accepted to Startup School and if possible, I’m hoping to make it. Unfortunately, it’s not in the budget.

All I need is about $600, so I figured, well, why not give it a shot. I created a campaign on ThePoint, which can be found here: https://www.thepoint.com/campaigns/send-phil-crissman-to-stanford-for-startup-school/headquarters

I’m extremely passionate about the web and startups, and I can absolutely say that I don’t believe the trip will be wasted. If a few dozen people can spare $10-20, I’m there. If it sounds worthwhile to you, please consider helping out. If not; no problem. Thanks!

The Prodigal Returns

Well. Mephisto is a very nice blog engine, but I think I’m coming back to Wordpress. There are too many advanced features I’ve gotten used to in Wordpress that are missing from Mephisto.

Wait, you say. You could add these features to Mephisto, submitting them as patches, making the world a better place in the process.

I think I could, but for now with school, work, freelance projects, and a pre-alpha startup in the works, I don’t have the time.

(”Pre-alpha startup” is a fancy way of saying “Notes on the back of a napkin.”)

So, I’m going to be blogging back here again. I expect I’ll be tweaking the theme again soon, but more importantly. And there isn’t really much more to say about that: back to Wordpress. See you soon.
