Followup. Noticed that a lot of URLs on the site are broken, so here’s a regular expression you could use to update them all:
s.replace(/http:\/\/tinysubversions.blogspot.com\/([0-9]+\/[0-9]+\/.*)\.html/, “http://tinysubversions.com/$1″)

I just wanted to mention that the URLs on this page have been broken by the move from Blogspot, in case no one had mentioned that yet.

Hi Lauren: largely you can avoid looking like a brown-noser by listening instead of talking! But more to the point, if you are truly sincere about wanting to be the friend of someone in the industry, then you probably won’t come off as a brown-noser when you interact with them.

In extreme cases, like when I’m trying to befriend people with significantly more experience than me who actually ARE my heroes, I basically don’t talk to them unless I can help them in some way. “Oh hey, it’s been a while since we talked, but I remember you were researching X. I just came across a great article on X you might be interested in.”
