Jason’s new job

Wednesday, August 17th, 2005

So, it looks like the baby will actually get her new pair of shoes.

I’ve made the jump back into the steady-paycheck world. I’m now Director of Marketplace Products for Boston.com.

In this role, I’ll continue the work I did from 2002-2004 on BostonWorks. Recruitment is an incredibly exciting (and scarily fast-moving) space right now, and I’m glad to be back in the thick of it. I’m also now working on Real Estate, Automotive, and other marketplaces. I look forward to learning these industries inside and out.

Within the next few weeks, I’ll start up the Marketplaces blog on Boston.com. I hope to engage the community in discussions on how we can all move these applications into the Web 2.0 world.

If you ever have any suggestions, please drop me a line at jpbutler@boston.com.

Anniversary!

Sunday, August 14th, 2005

One year ago, A. and I married each other. Yay!

Today, we celebrate our anniversary in the traditional way: sitting in the bleachers at a Red Sox game.

Insulation

Sunday, August 7th, 2005

Our one project for this year is getting the attic insulated.

Anyone know how to do this? I don’t even really know where to start. Please drop me a line if you have any suggestions :-)

Wow, what a storm

Friday, August 5th, 2005

Holliston just got mushed. 30 minutes of downpour, hail, heavy wind and cloud-to-ground lightning. Very scary. At least I don’t have any tree limbs down on the house; some of the neighbors may not be so lucky.

A. should have been on the 4:58 train out of South Station. I hope her commute wasn’t too hellish. Update: She’s safe and sound, if a little wet.
