Working at 10gen
As of today I am working for 10gen, the company behind MongoDB. I have been contracting with them for a few months to work on the PHP driver for MongoDB. I am now making the switch to a full time position.
I am responsible for supporting MongoDB in the PHP ecosystem through driver development, integration with open source tools, community support, and developer advocacy. For now, I will concentrate to get the driver into a better shape, and speaking about MongoDB and PHP.
I have already given a few talks on the subject, and if you would like me to speak at your user group or conference, please let me know. If you have any comments on using MongoDB with PHP, I would love to hear them too.
I am looking forwards with the awesome team at 10gen. Both with team in London, as well as with the folks in Palo Alto, New York and Dublin. 10gen is also hiring a few more people for a similar position in New York and Palo Alto. Have a look at the job posting here if you are interested.

Life Line
Little Owl owlet
This lovely owlet was quite easy to find in a London Park, with some help as they camouflage so well!
I saw its sibling too.

I went to a park (Bushy Park) to look for some owls.
I found Owls (Little and Tawny), but also a Green Woodpecker and two Kingfishers.
Snaps from my camera screen, and real photos will follow, but not of the Kingfishers as they were too far away and the photos are blurry.
