JULY 1, 2011

I've now been the Director of The Museum of Art & History in Santa Cruz for two months. Her mission in her blog has been to rebrand the experience of going to a museum, chasing away the old ideas of a quiet temple of tweedy art appreciation by generating new ideas of what a museum could be.

In their words: “CentOS is an Enterprise-class Linux Distribution derived from sources freely provided to the public by a prominent North American Enterprise Linux vendor. Debian or Ubuntu are just as “Enterprise-class&# as RHEL without Red Hat behind it. I had not heard of it until then. CentOS is a bit of an odd beast.

This year I'm indulging in three of my passions: raising money for Cambodian children with social media, teaching a social media nonprofit strategy class, and eating chocolate.
