Pine trees, looking up at blue sky.

I always know it’s been a productive workday when I’m hundreds of tweets and micro.blog posts behind on my timeline.

Black and White rocks.

Rocks and trees along a creek.

Full moon on a clear evening, lined with pine trees.

Release Notes is hosting a virtual happy hour this coming Thursday at 6pm Eastern time. Rather than having 100+ people in a single chat room, we’re going to randomly split people up into small breakout rooms, much like our dine-around events during our in-person conferences.

It’s a great opportunity to meet some new people, chat with old friends you would normally be seeing at in-person events, and get some much-needed relief from social isolation.

We’d love to see some of our micro.blog friends there. All are welcome. It’s a free event.

(We know time zones might make this inconvenient for some. We’re hoping if this goes well to host similar events at more accommodating times.)

Congrats to @manton on launching teams for micro.blog. Great feature.

Hung some acoustic panels in the office/home studio yesterday, which will make recordings sound great.

Bonus: now my HomePod sounds even better than it already did. F4913453-0EE7-48C4-8DA1-AA90F7C6F6E6.jpg

So March felt like three years, but April flew by in a day. I’m losing all sense of time, here.
