About Aaron
I am the Lead Editor of Technosailor.com, the Author of the WordPress Bible, a WordPress project core contributor, public speaker and an all around badass. If you're interested in having me speak at your event, contact me.

A few weeks ago, Brian Clark of Copyblogger.com confided in me that he was leaving DIYThemes, and splitting paths from the embattled Thesis theme and lead developer Chris Pearson. He agreed to do an interview with me exclusively about this news. This is the entire transcript of that interview.
Technosailor.com: Brian, thanks for agreeing to this interview. Obviously, the timing of this announcement and interview are interesting considering the discussions that have been happening in the WordPress community as it pertains to licensing and DIYThemes, the creator of the Thesis theme. You’ve been with DIYThemes since its inception and have championed the theme. You’re leaving the company now. Can you describe the reasoning that has gone into this decision?
Aaron Brazell is the author of the WordPress Bible (Wiley) and a frequent public speaker, former consultant, and an active instigator. He has been an active member of the WordPress community since 2004 as a developer, user and consultant. He is the lead organizer of WordCamp Mid-Atlantic, a WordPress community conference catering to the Greater Capital region, which includes Maryland, D.C., Delaware and Northern Virginia. He believes in challenging conventional thinking and assumptions, and as a result, often takes actions that are provocative, strategic, and unconventional in an effort to move dialogue and popular opinion forward.
He has worked for a variety of startups and is currently peddling his skills for a startup in Austin, TX that is still in stealth mode.
He currently resides in Austin, where he samples tacos and queso like they are going out of style.

nice stuff. Looks like something I could have used when I was starting out a few months ago and had never heard of “FTP” or “PHP”…the thing about learning it yourself instead of reading it out of a book is that you seem to learn it better when you teach yourself. When you have to figure out what chmod is and how to use it without any help, you learn it a lot better than when someone just tells you to right-click and change the value at the bottom to 666…
just my $.02
