The Igloo Coder (aka Donald Belcham) who is the president of the Edmonton .NET User Group, has written a wonderful series of posts about his experiences and lessons of starting up that group along with a posse of others. I love that he talks about things like motivation in addition to more practical matters. Highly recommended reading.

Also, INETA has been doing a series of webcasts about starting and running a user group. Check them out at live.ineta.org.

Thanks to Leon Bambrick for making sure I didn’t miss the Igloo Coder series!
