He soon made the leap into software development specializing in search and recommendation technologies. John is now a Senior Software Engineer at Eventbrite, where he is helping build Eventbrite’s event discovery application. He also recently coauthored a tech book, Relevant Search, published by Manning. John does yet not own a personal yacht. See John’s old blog posts here.
