Phillip Kast has a blog

If you're reading this, then I've trashed the wreckage that was my Posterous site and replaced it with my own creation. (More on how the site is built soon).
Long ago, Seth Godin did this categorization of blogs, which I've always liked.1 Well, according to his categories, I've always created a cat blog: a little public diary of things I've done. After trying that for a decade or so, it's pretty clear that I'm just no web diarist. Which is fine; that's what twitter is for.
This time I'm trying a different approach. This site is going to publish occasional writing about the Internet, programming, startups, and the tech industry. It will also be the mouthpiece for updates on my work and the products I create. In other words, topics that might actually have an audience.
Stay tuned...

Except the word viral. Folks, unless it’s killing bits of you in order to spread itself, it ain’t viral.↩
Hi, I'm Phillip Kast. Currently I'm based in Seattle, WA. I have a small company, Year of Code, through which I write software for iOS, Mac and the web.
Previously I founded a YC-funded company and was the first employee of another that was acquired. Then I was the first engineering hire at Urbanspoon, where I built Rezbook, their online reservation product.
When I'm not at the keyboard, I can often be found running, kayaking, or climbing around the PNW.
