Happy Pi Day everyone!

You guys should take a look at this site which makes some cool art from the number π.   Also reminds me also that I have two raspberry pi's that need some attention.  Anyone got any suggestions for them?

Today is also my ten year anniversary with Liferay!  Wow… I’ve spent a whole decade working for a company! This means I’ve put in 10000 hours and you can now consider me an expert on Liferay!  The company is vastly different from the one from ten years ago.  My mother didn’t even consider Liferay a company at the time and was hoping I find a job with a real company like IBM, Microsoft, or Oracle.  I think though that we've really grown as a company over the last decade.

Here's ten photos over the last ten years for you to see yourself:

An early release, Liferay Portal 3.6.1.

Before there were symposiums, we had a Liferay PUG (Portal User Group).

Remember when I built my wedding website on Liferay?

First time in Madrid.

This language is way harder than Java!  Hello world.  Welcome Kelsey.

If you've made it this far... I only have one last thing to share.  Becoming a father has taught me that you must show off your baby at every possible moment you can. One significant change that has happened within the last few years of Liferay was my move into a Product Manager.  It's sort of a fatherly role so I need to really do my best showing off my baby.  So over the next couple posts I will be showing off different parts of my Liferay "baby".  Her name is Platform.
