Today is my first day at Facebook. I am thrilled to be here. This is a great opportunity for me to work on hard problems with talented people. I expect to continue making MySQL faster.
You can friend me on Facebook. I have started a Facebook group on which MySQL can be discussed. I will start posting there soon. But this is a group so you are welcome to join and post.
I will be at the Velocity Conference on Tuesday evening. Will anyone else who deploys MySQL be in town?

ReplyDeleteWow, congrats!
I'll be at Velocity on Wednesday afternoon for my talk (which I desperately need to make slides for). Dunno about Tuesday.
Mark,
ReplyDeleteCongratulation!
So does this mean you will finally get to use Maatkit? ;-)

I think I may be able to use Maatkit now. That would be very nice.
ReplyDeleteWow, congratulations! I guess I should have gone to Velocity, would love to get some more details on your move over a beer. Facebook's environment is definitely interesting, I'm sure you'll find lots of stuff to play with; perhaps I'll even get you to spend some time on that other open source database ;-)
ReplyDelete@Robert - the 'funny' comment on my badge is 'I love Postgres'. That is part ironic, part envy and a lot of respect. Eventually, I will learn more about it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Mark. I'm looking to forward to seeing you to release Facebook patches in the near future.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Mark! I look forward to collaborating with you in your new role as we have done in your old. And thanks again for all your good works re InnoDB and MySQL!
ReplyDeleteLet's be in touch soon!

Very glad to hear you'll still be working on MySQL! (isn't it nice that one change companies and continue to work on the same code). All the best at the new job!
