Re: Anybody here?

Hi

I'm here too.

Jeff MacDonald
Perl/Pgsql Geek

Just curious, is there a postgresql pay pal account setup ?

This should be on all of the pgsql pages if one exists.

Anyone remember a few years back Slashdot was sending out those
postcard sized flyers to IT folks all over the place ?

I wonder what that kind of thing costs.. I for one thing PostgreSQL
postcards would be an awesome marketing idea.. pass them out at
conferences, send to the random folks etc..
