Andy Gladstone Community Champion

This past summer my family hiked the Continental Divide in Hoosier Pass National Forest. The views were amazing, and the memories will hold us forever.

Congrats Amanda! 

@Brandon Davies welcome to the Atlassian Community and congrats on making it to the leaderboard! Come back next round to try and beat your current Personal Best!

Toronto is such a hotbed of amazing Atlassian Admins and Developers. This is sure to be an amazing event!

How bout registering for an exam to test your knowledge and become certified?

While everything in our organization is documented in Confluence, conversation takes place in Slack. We have a dedicated Confluence user group channel where we announce the dates of meetings/trainings along with the agenda - which is produced in a Confluence page! This allows potential attendees to know the time and date…

Not a snack. But I love that Sam Adams comes out with the Porch Rocker flavor in the summer. My 20 year old son and I polished off a 12 pack over the past 10 days while on vacation. (I’m not a big drinker). The best part… most of them were shared during mels we ate out on the porch!

@Scott Farquhar thank you for being such a vocal supporter of the Online and Events communities. I have found so many lifelong friends in this global village that I would have never had the opportunity to come across without this community. I can say I have true Atlassian friends on six continents due to the Online…

@Theresa McFarlane just a quick reminder that today is your day! Looking forward to your post.

We have a couch in front of our large front window in our living room. When it's raining (and I'm not wat work in my home office) I love to sit on the couch with a warm blanket, mug of coffee and a book. Usually my kids will join me and we'll switch between reading and watching the raindrops.

I won't be able to make this one in real-time but look forward to watching the recording nonce it becomes available.

Any quality of life improvement is worthy of publication in my book! Love the enhancements to the profile page, and looking forward the next-gen version of profiles in the next major upgrade. Thanks for sharing @Janice! 

@Jimmy Seddon you are such a prolific writer and contributor to the Community. Do you remember what your first question/comment/post on the Community was?

In elementary school I was so nervous about the first day of school that I'd get ready early the night before by eating a healthy dinner, taking a bath, laying out my clothes for the first day of school and going to sleep early. After the lights went out, I'd wait 10-15 minutes and get up and put on my new clothes and…

I generally don't try to paint everyone with a broad stroke. Not every CUG meeting is for every type of user. Our users fall into three categories: * Beginner * Advanced * Admin Any CUG, or internal meeting related to the Atlassian product suite, will specify who the target audience is. Anyone can join any meeting, but in…

We were a small family, so there was no need for reunions to bring us all together. We saw each other often enough that we didn't need a planned event for all of us to get together. Now that the next generation has expanded our family, we use weddings, Bar Mitzvahs and life event celebrations to get together. These don't…

I remember reading Utkarsh's story when it was first published. I am inspired again and hope to sit the exam for ACA for Confluence Essentials in the next two months. This was a great reminder to get started on the scheduling and studying!

@Michelle you'll want to start some of the learning paths at Atlassian University. Training is 100% free, and you are not required to take the certification exams. You can learn at your own pace and choose the products and practices you want to become proficient in. Good luck!

@Amin Ghasemi welcome to the Atlassian Community. You're going to want to check out Atlassian for Startups. I'm moving this post to the Startup Group to get the right eyes on it and provide guidance for you. Good Luck!

I continue to be inspired by Kristian Faulkner. She has consistently taken advantage of opportunities that have come her way with humility and poise. She only began cycling prior to Covid. She has been on World Tour Teams for the past three seasons. She was not supposed to race in the Olympic Road race, but was a last…

@Brittany Joiner yo little sis! Congratulations. I'm glad they didn't interview me for this article, it would have been too long of a read. So many memories together, so many more to come. Thanks for being an inspiration to us all. I should get paid royalties on my meme!

Great topic for startups looking to use Atlassian tools for the first time. Or even those who have some experience with the tools, this is a great review on how to set up projects for success.

@Lisa Forstberg having implemented an ISO:9001 standard in a previous life - while using Confluence, I think the issue you are going to run in to with Whiteboards is version control. I have not looked at the ISO standards for almost a decade, but that was a big part of the requirements back then. Whiteboards are too fluid…

I grew up less than a mile from the Atlantic Ocean and we also had a pool in our backyard (until Hurricane Gloria destroyed it in 1986). I was swimming while still in diapers. I was less than 3 years old when I no longer needed a safety flotation device while in the pool. We spent summers by the ocean and open water…

The naming scheme of these winners is... a winner! Congrats to all of the winners.

I was very excited when this arrived and have added it to my library of Atlassian Community Leader's publications. I am hoping to work it into my reading regime in Q4. Congratulations!

I assume the other type is those who can't. 💙🏆🥉🥈🥇🎯💡🕹📢🎓🧠

@Emily Conroy welcome to the Atlassian Online Community! Sorry that you are having issues accessing content. I checked multiple links and they all work for me, including the Museum post. It is stored as a tiny.url, perhaps that is the issue? Here is the direct…

The share to Confluence modal is something that will rely create more efficiency when trying to create and publish pages via the Mobile App. Looking forward to using it.

@Dominique Döhring welcome to the Atlassian Community. I do not believe there is a roadmap for Confluence Databases that is public facing to determine when 3rd party functionality will be available. I'm curious, what is your use case for integrating a database with a third party app?
