I'm looking for a job right now. I have a couple options open at the moment, but I'm still knocking on doors so I can take the best possible next step in my career. I've always found it's better to seek help by helping others, so as I polish my resume and seek employment, I'm putting out the offer to help anyone else in the same position. I believe it will ultimately open doors for me to live this way.

I've polished resumes dozens of times in my life for students, friends, and even strangers on the internet, so if you'd like someone to take a second look at it, send it my way. I'll spend half an hour looking at it, making my suggestions, and passing it back to you.

Also, I know tons of people, particularly in Atlanta, and am aware of lots of job openings that I either don't want or am not qualified for. If you are looking for work, let me know, and I'll do my best to make a connection that leads to something good.

That's it. An open offer.

I'm in a room full of laptops, Coke cans, wires, and plates with half-eaten sandwiches. We're building a company in 3 days.

We probably won't make much money, and might not even get everything done this weekend that we wanted to, but we're all learning a lot and having a great time building something cool with other entrepreneurs. I've already been doing some API research, marketing materials, legal stuff, design, roadmapping, and some basic project management stuff. I'm the least skilled in the room as far as actual development, but I'm managing to stay busy helping out with little things.

Okay, back to work.

I'll be speaking tomorrow (11/11/10) at the "Gen Y and Social Media" panel in the Hodges Room at Tech Square with @ajaimk, @mattstech, and @oliviapatrick. This is all part of Social Media Week Atlanta (#SMATL). Our panel is from 16:30 - 18:00. I hope to see you there!

Excellent post-event wrap-up by @OliviaPatrick at her blog, here.

Last night was the second (hopefully) annual Mashlanta party held by Mashable and Regator. The event was a great chance to meet some new folks, and match some faces to Twitter handles. I was able to finally connect with some people I've communicated with for months online, and connect to some interesting local companies. I'm really excited for next year and highly recommend this event. If you only go to one geek/social/tech event in Atlanta, I'd say Mashlanta should make your short list.

The event itself was pretty great, with a full open bar and lots of tipple to choose from, but of course, all these events are about the after-party. In this case, it was a pretty low-key affair around the corner at Ormsby's. As before, I got to see some good old friends and make a few new ones.

Count me in for next year.
