  • Blog, Blogger, Blogging

    Joel Oleson wrote a good article on the importance of blogging a few weeks ago that I thought should be passed on / linked to. Make sure you take a look and consider contributing your knowledge to the larger community. You never know who's going to read...

  • New Orleans 2007 (4 of 4)

    Day 4 - Monday We got a good half-day of work in before cleaning up and heading back. Everyone was pretty tired after a few days of hard work and late nights 'contributing to the local economy'. I don't remember if we completely finished this house, but...

  • Tech Ed 2007 Begins

    All checked in to the hotel and registered at the conference. I was a little concerned about Tropical Storm Barry on Friday night, but he apparently wimped out and went North of Orlando - so all is good. The conference store is already crazy busy and...
