Rory and I flew back from TechEd on the same plane and were able to sit beside each other. Andrew and Chris were on that flight too. Rory has a bit of a fear of flying , so I tried to distract him from the fact that we were way up in the air, with nothing...
Now that I have around 150 pictures from TechEd, I'd love to organize them all. But how to do it? By date? By subject matter or theme? Other? I have some that I've cropped and edited, and already published to my blog. Argh! I need WinFS today...
...AKA, palm trees, coconuts, and sand... On Thursday morning, Carl and Rory held a .NET Rocks! special event in the cabana area at TechEd. Since there weren't any MS product group folks available for interviewing (it was supposed to be an “MS...
On Tuesday night I had a chance to eat dinner with a bunch of the Microsoft Developer Evangelists and Developer Community Champions. It's great to be able to get together as a group from time to time to talk about how things are going, what exciting...
[ Update : apparently some people outside the US don't have Dove bars. What are they? A little piece of heaven on a stick. Very creamy vanilla ice cream covered with very rich and creamy chocolate. Click here for my other post about them. (But be...

There are tons of hands on labs this year, and for (many of them at least) they're using Virtual PC images on the lab machines. What an excellent idea. At past conferences, my HOL experience was tainted by having to wait on machines to be re-Ghosted...
As a gang of us were invading a restaurant, someone spied Anders Hejlsberg. Heh. I couldn't resist. (Sorry Anders!) With Mr. C# (among other things) himself...
It was such an honor to be able to grab a photograph with the inventor of the HSoP™ Method of digital photography. I am not worthy of the honor...
Those words say it all...
Lunchtime. Ah, yes. A bit of a Mexican flair to the meal. I ended up scraping everything off the tortillas and using them as a "pusher." No, I didn't eat all the black beans, much to the delight of my roommate. As you can see, I went with...
There are probably going to be hundreds of people blogging about the technical aspects of TechEd 2004. And for a good reason. TechEd is the yearly uber-geek-fest where thousands of geeks descend on a convention center and load their brains with technical...
Since nerds get hungry no matter where they are, let's join Portland Nerd John Deal for a nerd dinner in San Diego. What : Nerd Dinner Where : Horton Plaza - Westfield (Food court Level 4) When : Monday, May 24, starting around 7:30 PM Why : Cause...
Well, there was a tremendous turnout for the Portland Nerd Dinner last night. The MSDN folks came to see what all the hoopla is about. They even bought us some crappy mall food. (Boy, do they know they way to win the hearts of nerds.) The MSDN’ers...
