How to Contact Me
Email is the absolute best way to get in touch. I’m generally pretty good about it. (I wrote a blog post once about my email practices.)
- Personal: deane@deanebarker.net
- Staffbase business: deane.barker@staffbase.com
Sending me a message on LinkedIn works well too.
You can DM on Twitter, but I’m not there much anymore. @deane_barker
Note: I formally left Twitter in November 2024
I’m on Bluesky: @deanebarker.net
I started my own Mastodon server (with a domain name I regret, honestly):
My mobile number is 605-376-1415 but understand that I do not answer calls unless I know who is calling (even if I was lost in the wilderness). However, you can text anything you like to that number.
Social Media Accounts
I am relatively active on social media, but I’m a stickler for connections: we need to have some relationship. We need to know each other, basically.
- Facebook: Note that I generally don’t connect with professional contacts on FB. Sometimes colleagues become friends, of course, but if we know each other purely professionally, then LinkedIn is better.
- LinkedIn: I was user #1,500, so I have a fantastic URL. Also, I re-post a lot of my updates on this site.
- Stack Overflow
