“Here’s what this developer was able to do with our product,” and replace it with, “check out how this developer did XYZ.” 😊

I really wish I will meet @bryanross sometime in the future to buy him a lunch and a beer!

You are a selfless and good person by spending hours to review one of my articles and providing literal pages of detailed feedback 😍

What does organizing a hackathon and video postproduction have in common? Both are a lot of work actually ;-)

This is how checked-in luggage locks like for people who are in embedded systems Developer Relations. 1) Demo gear 2) clothes to pad the demo gear.

I’m on the “No Password Required” podcast, where I talk about Auth0 by Okta, mobile/IoT and AI, building developer communities, the mainstreaming of geek culture, maximizing your “luck surface area,” and of course, the accordion!

I believe every developer has to be able to communicate their ideas effectively to different audiences!

Fortunately I also believe that every techie can communicate their ideas to different audiences 😊

Time-To-Hello-World is a nice metric.

But isn't it more important to achieve a first "WOW!"?

I suggest we introduce Time-To-First-Wow (TTFW) as a metric.

My colleague Mike Elissen wrote a very insightful article on what developer advocacy is and why it matters.

This week our company's Fireside with Voxgig podcast was an interesting chat with Suze Shardlow detailing the questions that should be asked AND ANSWERED to help #devrel teams be most effective within organisations. Expectations should be made clear and managed. Recommended listening for
#devrel #developerrelations people and companies that are trying to make sense of it all. I should know; I'm trying to make sense of it all!

Thinking today about trying to draw direct lines to a lot of what we do in developer advocacy, and how to connect content created to product consumptioin.

To that end, how do folks feel about UTMs in links?

#DeveloperRelations

We really need to stop using the word "evangelist" when it comes to Developer Relations.

There are reasons why we are where we are in this world and need to start with naming conventions that I recently spoke about in my Deceptive Patterns talk.

Developer Relations, Developer Advocate, something other than evangelist. #DeveloperAdvocate #DeveloperRelations #DevRel #NamingConventions

Do I know what I'm doing? I don't. Do I wish I could be on all the servers? Yes.

But...it's kind of exciting?

Anyway, hi.

I work at #PagerDuty on the #DeveloperRelations team (opinions my own, naturally).

I've spent a lot of time in the #Drupal and #WordPress communities, and was once lead of Drupal Diversity & Inclusion.

I also write #fiction (working on a science fantasy novel) and #poetry. I run a #tabletopgaming convention called MañanaCon (https://www.mananacon.com).

I have been told for Mastodon to work I need to do an intro with #hashtags. Serious “hey fellow kids” vibes but ok.

I am Betsy. I am an #evangelist in #developerrelations at #Apple.

I #knit and make yarn on my #spinningwheel. In the summer I #row. I’m a big #orangetheory fitness fan.

My #dog is named Toby and he will be one of the #dogsofmastodon. The correct number of #dogphotos is aleph-nought.

#starwars and #videogames and #lordoftherings and general #nerddom are my jam.
