.NET devs in Vermont have a LOT going on this week (if I can call the next 9 days "this week" that is).
Monday : Tonight is our monthly meeting of VTdotNet with Mark Merchant from Microsoft's Virtual Earth Business Unit presenting on leveraging Virtual Earth's APIs and web services in your web apps and using the new SQL Server Geography data type. Based on the # of RSVPs, this is going to be one of our better attended meetings!
Thanks to GE Healthcare for hosting this meeting and to Mark for driving up from southern Vermont and to Microsoft for paying for the pizza. We also have gobs of swag thanks to CodeZone, Infragistics, Jet Brains and a number of publishers.

Saturday & Sunday: This weekend is the New England Code Camp (number TEN!) in Waltham. Since we don't yet do a Code Camp in Vermont (if you want to organize one, let me know!), the Waltham Code Camp has been a popular choice for those of us who can make the road trip. I have some previous obligations and am very bummed that I won't be able to attend or present.

Tuesday: The gift that keeps on giving! On Tuesday, Chris Bowen and Jim O'Neill, two of our Dev Evangelists from Microsoft's Mass office, are kicking off their RoadShow tour in Burlington. It's a full day of free training from two very knowledgeable guys. Chris & Jim have a crazy schedule to do 6 different sessions throughout the day. The event will be held at KnowledgeWave in South Burlington.
