Thanks For The What Gives!? T-Shirt Roman!

it's time for a facelift guys. i've been looking for a reason to finally migrate myself to Joomla 1.5 and following ten days in China i finally found what i feel this blog has been missing since day one. focus.

in the meantime, i've got no shortage of great stories to share with folks over at WhatGives.com so over the coming days you can check in there for some positive highlights from my recent trip.

Roman Garcia Is Harmonious

I just finished another post on What Gives!? and got a warm and fuzzy feeling about a new friendship that I just had to blog about.

A big thank you to Roman Garcia of eBay Giving Works for reaching out to me last month and inviting me to blog for What Gives!? I'm only two posts into it, but am really grateful for being part of a growing community on there that's all about sharing positive news.

Jill Buck of Go Green Initiative and I had lunch with Roman a few days ago while I was in SF and while I can't disclose what we were ~~plotting~~ talking about, if I could condense our dialog into a few hypothetical lines of an unfinished script, it'd go something like this:

Roman Garcia CHRISTINE: Hi, I'm hungry. Oh, and I want to change the world.

ROMAN: Cool, me too. Let's do it. Oh, and try the pumpkin curry. It kicks ass.
