Hi !
Today’s post is a special one, but let me explain why. They said that we learn from errors, and I learned with a big one. 2 weeks ago, I manage to make a test skype group call with some friends from Argentina. The test was great, we have a nice time online and we decided to go for a formal one the next week.
So, last Saturday, we get a bigger group, we defined a mini agenda, and we have 60 minutes talking about tons of stuff. However, when the podcast finished, I realize that I only record my voice and not the audio from the participants, so I was very upset about this.
So, I went back to the raw record from 2 weeks ago, I work on the edition mode, and here is the result: a nice time between 4 people talking about how we started with PCs and programming. In this session I’m happy because I spent some time with Eugenio Serrano (@eugenioserrano), Leonardo Micheloni (@leomicheloni) and Matias Iacono (@matiasiacono), 3 great professionals who are also amazing people !!!
