I Bet You Thought I Forgot

Yeah, it's been a while since I've posted. Even longer if you're one of those that doesn't think my " Congrats to Brian and Belinda " post counts. I was about to say that nothing really interesting has happened since Tech·Ed, but I guess that wouldn't be entirely correct. As you may know, about halfway...

TechEd Day 3

Tech·Ed is pretty cool. Something unexpected happened tonight at dinner. Gerry and I were at some restaurant at the hotel (we are both staying at the Westgate Lakes Resort). We walked in and were second in line to put our name on the list. Then a man walked in behind us. He was still wearing his Tech...

MSN's Scott Isaacs and the Secret TechEd

Wow. So a lot of stuff has happened since last night. For starters, when I was checking my blogs this morning, I saw that Scott Isaacs from Microsoft (a different Scott Isaacs) has mentioned me in his blog . I'm honored. (I wonder what the odds of him being at Tech·Ed are?) Apparently he does some of...

Women In Technology

Down here at Tech·Ed this year they are having a Women In Technology lunch one day. I think the reason that they are doing this is because they want to celebrate and encourage the number of women in our field. To be honest, there are hardly any in comparison to the number of men -- at least from what...

TechEd - Day One

Well, day one has come to a close -- at least as far as technical sessions. We started out the day with Steve Ballmer's keynote. I guess it was interesting enough, but it wasn't really what I was expecting. Maybe it's because I've heard a lot of these ideas before (integration, ease of use, mobility...

TechEd - Huge

I'm in Orlando now, and spent the afternoon at an INETA Summit. Very cool -- I got to meet a number of "famous" people while there, including Chris Pels (President of INETA ) and Shaun Walker (of DotNetNuke fame). Very cool. At the moment, I am standing at a terminal inside the convention center. Gerry...

TechEd Schedule

Here is my tentative Tech·Ed schedule. There are several time slots where I have double- or triple-booked myself. Also, I have been told by experienced Tech·Ed attendees to let my schedule be flexible -- make sure I hit the things that are critical to me, but let the other times be rearranged if necessary...

VMWare, Virtual PC and TechEd

So, I wanted to install VS 2005 Beta 2 so that I can play with it before (and at) Tech·Ed . Well rather than install it rught my laptop (in case of any potential conflict or crash or whatever) I decided to install it in a virtual machine. On my work laptop I installed VMWare Workstation and on my own...

4 Days Until TechEd

So I'm flying out to Tech·Ed on Sunday. Once I finalize my schedule, I'll post it here (in case anyone cares). I found something interesting on Scott Hanselman's blog , though. They are going to have condensed, 10-minute GrokTalk sessions covering a lot of topics in a short amount of time. Now I just...
