We’re back with another vacation minisode. This time it’s with local Indie Web/iPhone App developer, Chadwick Wood who runs Coffeeshopped, a small one man dev shop.

We talked about his work, his side projects and his idea blog.
This Tuesday night (6/29/2010) Cafe Bedouins is going to be meeting at Cospace. Even better than that, I’ll be there with microphone in hand! Still working out the details on how it will all work, but you do the math: Me + You + Microphone == True Love. Look forward to seeing you there and… Read the Rest »
