Dear blog,Yes, I know… it’s been a while since I’ve written anything. True, I shared some of my personal videos from TechEd, plus some resources for attendees to series of presentations I did a little while ago.. but nothing really from the heart; from my personal thoughts or opinions.

Dear TechEd Diary,Unlike TechEd of years past, Thursday marked the very last day of the conference. I went to a few sessions, but the best part of the day was the all-attendee party held for us at Mardi Gras World. Food, live music, oppressive heat (wow.. it was hot in that warehouse) and good times.Here … Continue reading TechEd Diary Day 4 (Last of 5) – June 10, 2010

Dear TechEd Diary, Here I am at the Minneapolis/St. Paul airport, sitting at gate G17 awaiting my Delta flight to New Orleans. And already I’ve seen a few other suspiciously looking geeky people at the gate. It’s a fun little game I call “spot the geek”.“Really, Kevin… you’re being inconsiderate.?”On the contrary, I mean it … Continue reading TechEd Diary: Spot the Geek!
As I’ve done in the past, here is a compilation of random scenes (aka “Video Diary”) of our team’s Readiness Launch event for Office 2010 and SharePoint 2010 that happened in Bloomington, Minnesota on May 27, 2010.
