As of this week, I am proud to announce the launch of the Agile Business Community. With educational videos, ongoing webcasts, hundreds of articles, forums, a monthly newsletter, and a social networking platform, it is the ultimate resource for software developers who are hungry for knowledge, interactivity, and fresh content.

This website re-design has been my primary focus for the past two months while working at CMC Media. I shared the workload with my co-worker Chris Pratt who is the founder of Metal Tome: Gateway to Shred. We built The Agile Business Community using Joomla 1.5 Content Management System. By holding daily meetings, occasional working late hours, and re-shaping our goals to adapt to unexpected changes and bugs, we incorporated agile techniques to develop a strong and reliable social networking site.

Barcamp LA 6 was great! Props to the hosts for making the un-convention happen. There was a crowd of highly skilled developers using cutting edge technology. A lot of the presentations were very interesting.

There are Un-Conferences happening all over the world, at different times. and they are full of creative, self motivated, highly skilled people.

Barcamp San Diego 4 will be taking place November 15th & 16th 2008. I plan to do a presentation on Oneironauts or Explorers of the Dream World.

I highly recommend Barcamp to people like you, who read my blog. Visit BarCamp.org to see upcoming events around the world.

Pursuing lucid dreaming is an act of introspection and self exploration. Everyone’s dream world is rich with themes and lessons that are universal for all people, but are presented in a way that applies to the dreamers personal life. By becoming lucid in a dream, the dreamer can consciously take part in the virtual world created by their mind.

Every decision the dreamer makes immediately effects the dream world, and the dreamer can experience the results of there thoughts and emotions as they play out. For example if a dreamer sees something dangerous and focuses on the fear they feel, the dream will become more scary. If the dreamer sees something dangerous and instead, focuses on curiosity while knowing that they are safe in a dream, the dream will shift and the dreamer can learn about what the dangerous situation actually represents in their life. Overcoming fear is just one of the many lessons lucid dreaming teaches.

I believe lucid dreaming is an important concept that our society needs to learn about and experience. That is why I promote lucid dreaming and encourage people to try it out. I have made a documentary DVD that can help you on your journey:
