This is the temporary logo I designed for my boss’ website in 2004. It survived mostly in tact for the current site.

This photo was taken by Rich at the ON24 layoff party. Here, Gaelen Gates, Me and Peter Shaplen are sporting “Money down the toilet” T-shirts in honor of our former company. Gaelen and I went to law school – Peter went on to be the go-to-guy for network TV and radio news pool-coverage of major media events.

This was my last paycheck from KRON-TV in San Francisco before I left to start work at ON24. It was mostly unused vacation hours earned.

During New Year’s 2000, this is my only souvenir. At the time, I was working at ON24 and my shift was 4 a.m. to 2 p.m. My normal bedtime was 6:30 p.m.
Although I set my alarm to wake up early, I slept through midnight and completely missed the Year 2000 celebration. But kept this noisemaker for almost 8 years until I scanned it for this site and tossed it in the trash bin.

Here is a copy of the final ON24 news schedule that I took with me on the day ON24 shuttered its news division, seeing no future in ad-supported broadband streaming media. (A few years later a little company called YouTube thought otherwise.)

This is a map I made for the law office move on summer 2006. It was printed on a postcard and mailed to all of our clients and most the the attorneys and vendors we dealt with at the time.

When I worked at KRON-TV in the late 1990s, they had this program called “1001 Thanks” – named after the street address, 1001 Van Ness. The program allowed anyone – coworkers, supervisors, interns or otherwise, publicly thank a fellow employee with a note. A carbon copy went in your permanent personnel file. Of all the thanks I got, this one was particularly touching to me. It reminds me that no matter how small we think our job is, that we still can have a big impact on the lives of those around us.
