Joel on Software

Zagreb / Edinburgh

by Joel Spolsky
Thursday, April 26, 2007

On May 17th I'll be speaking at Web.Start in Zagreb, Croatia. “Web.Start is the first regional conference catering to the authors of Web projects, aiming to help them realize or improve their projects and helping them reach the knowledge and contacts that will help hem position themselves on the market, fund their projects and achieve success.”

Also.

Inadvertently, I referred to the UK as "England."

In my defense, I really did think that I was analyzing data on customers in England specifically. Later I realized that our order form dropdown only has a listing for the United Kingdom.

By way of apologies, if you're in Edinburgh when I pass through there on May 19th, let me buy you a pint. Sign up on this wiki page.


College students: my company has paid summer internships in New York City, including free housing, free lunch, and the chance to develop software people will really use, with great mentors on interesting projects. Don't miss this chance of a lifetime. We only have a few spaces and they always go fast, so apply today.

You’re reading Joel on Software, stuffed with years and years of completely raving mad articles about software development, managing software teams, designing user interfaces, running successful software companies, and rubber duckies.



About the author.

I’m Joel Spolsky, founder of Fog Creek Software, a New York company that proves that you can treat programmers well and still be highly profitable. Programmers get private offices, free lunch, and work 40 hours a week. Customers only pay for software if they’re delighted. We make FogBugz, an enlightened project management system designed to help great teams develop brilliant software, and Fog Creek Copilot, which makes remote desktop access easy.
