So as the clock ticks and we get closer to Citus Con: An Event for Postgres 2023, it seemed fitting to release my video monologue as a YouTube .

It's about the often misspelled, often mispronounced Postgres and Citus databases.

Hope y'all enjoy it and that it brings a smile to your day.

Please please boost, to help more people get a kick out of this.

Did some snowshoeing in the mountains this weekend (beautiful magical snow) & it was a good place to think about:

>> What talk proposal to submit into the CFP for Citus Con: An Event for Postgres 2023?

But I still haven't decided whether to submit an existing talk or a new talk.... maybe both?

Deadline: The CFP will close on Feb 5 2023 @ 11:59pm PST!

Hey all, the CFP is open for Citus Con: An Event for Postgres 2023.

What Postgres or Citus or PG extension story do you want to give?

Boosts are appreciated ❤️ esp. in this day & age where Twitter is no longer effective & I'm not yet connected to everyone here on Mastodon.

The event is free & virtual; it will happen in April. Because talks are recorded & published online, you'll have a bigger reach, too.
