Okay, that’s just kind of a joke (and a bit of an attention grab!), although I do expect to be surrounded by about 10,000 men at TechEd. But truly the issue is "so much to do, so little time". Here are some of the gazillion things I am hoping to do during my three short days at TechEd this week: [read more …]

It seems everyone I talked to today was heading to the airport for TechEd!
I’ll be heading down Tuesday morning. My husband is laughing heartily at my idea of getting on the road by 6am. We’ll see how it goes!
Jonathan Bruce from DataDirect has organized a data access geek meetup with ADO.NET Technical Lead Pablo Castro (who’s name I must mention 10 times every time I do an ADO.NET talk!) and Bob Beauchemin on Tuesday afternoon from 4pm to 6pm. There is limited space at this event, so head over to his blog for details!

I am looking forward to being able to get my hands on the RTM version of the ASP.NET 2.0 book that Alex Homer & Dave Sussman have coming out TechEd. The previous versions (alpha and beta) were also co-authored by Rob Howard. I have great expectations for this final version, that is written against the final release of ASP.NET 2.0. Developers are fortunate to have so many great ASP.NET 2.0 books at our disposal.
update: here’s the inside scoop on the book from Dave who says it’s not just a polished up version of the beta book…
Yes you read that right and no I will not be participating. 😉
I just did my first solo MSDN webcast today. Being the worrywart that I am, I was a little nervous. Here’s the lowdown …hopefully useful for other first timers! [read more….]

So I’m flipping through the local weekly, Seven Days, and I did a double take when I thought I saw Bruce Schneier’s name in big letters at the top of the page. Here’s the article.
Yep it’s him and yep he’s coming to Vermont. There’s an ACLU meeting on Tuesday and he’s speaking at it.
When? You ask? On Tuesday, the day I will be in Boston at TechEd. I will be driving past Montpelier at about 7am.
It’s not like I pay attention to his speaking schedule, which has this event on it!
Aaaaargh.
I have posted my version of the powerpoint (not the pretty MSDN version since I don’t have that) and the sample code from today’s Intro to WSE 3.0 webcast.
You can find them on my TALKS page. Scroll down to Introduction to…. and you’ll see the zip and ppt files.
Thanks to all who attended!
I hear there was a snafu with the survey and MP3 Raffle and that emails will be sent out to attendees on how to get back in the game (within 24 hours, they told me)
