I met up with Matt Haughey the other day and we had a nice chat. Matt runs the suite of metafilter.com sites as well as PVRblog.com and his personal blog. We filmed in the conference room of the Coffee Cottage in Newberg–a little too much echo for my taste, but the interview turned out good enough.
