Outside of work, you'll often find me enjoying the Bay Area’s vibrant music scene. I consider myself a consummate amateur guitarist and can play drums when necessary. These days, you're likely to find me in the audience at a Gogol Bordello or Flaming Lips show. I am listening to Beirut as I type this.
As a veteran on the team, I've seen Google Base grow from a rumor in the blogosphere to a beta project that is growing fast, and it's been a great ride. If you're looking for a Google Base tip, I recommend that you make sure you're using the minimum required attributes in your bulk uploads. And be sure not to include any old Froogle attributes in your bulk upload, either. Starting at the end of February, we will no longer be posting items that do not include a minimum number of attributes.
