Recent stories by and about Drew McLellan

How I met Matt Mullenweg

I know Matt from WaSP, and we first met at SXSW 2006.

How I met Jeffrey Veen

I met Jeff over cocktails at the d.Construct 2006 speakers dinner.

How I met Eris Stassi

I met Eris at SXSW 2006. She is kind and friendly and as mad as a badger.

Why I like Eric A. Meyer

Eric is not only a great instructor and pioneer, he’s also a really lovely guy. I heart Eric.

A story about Derek Powazek

I met Derek at a party one night at SXSW 2006. I was there with Tom Coates, who introduced us.

Derek’s early work with Fray was a major influence on my own work, and so I was very honoured to meet him. Being a dork I think I probably didn’t say much more than ‘hi’.

How I met David Heinemeier Hansson

I met DHH in person first at the Future of Web Apps Summit in London 2006, after I caught up with him after the presentations were over.

How I met Ryan King

I met Ryan at SXSW 2006, before I knew him. Ryan was handing out microformats shirts in a corridor. We must have exchanged fewer than a dozen words.

Subsequently, I’ve worked with Ryan quite a bit on microformats, and hope to meet up with him again before too long.
