On Tuesday of the coming week I’ll be heading over to The Westin Peachtree Plaza for MDC Atlanta.  My buddy Steve Porter will be doing a session and I have to swing by to heckle support him.

If you have the time (and the $99) it should be a great day of content and technical conversation with some really knowledgeable people.

See you there!

The inaugural MTC Summit has kicked off here in Chicago.  Jay from the VB team kicked off the keynote with another session from Rocky.

It should be a great day meeting clients and hearing presentations from fellow Magenicons.  I will be presenting my DMV talk at 1:15.

Our marketing folks did a great job with this event.  We found out last night at dinner that we had to close registration so that we guaranteed seats for all signing up.  Not bad for a first year event.

Here's a picture from the keynote.  A little blurry but not bad from my Dash.

I will blog a bit more later today about the event as a whole and include my slides and code samples.

I’m a little late getting this out on the blog, but I wanted to make mention of this event as it will be a great time.  It’s especially exciting for me as I will be presenting (on SQL 2005 DMVs).  Here is the official release from Magenic:

Magenic is holding a full-day, two-track mini-conference on June 20. We have put together a great lineup of speakers and topics, including 2 keynotes and 8 sessions. This will be a full day of hard-core technical content and fun!

The event is being held in Downers Grove near Chicago, IL. It starts at 8:30 AM and runs through to a reception at the end of the day at around 5 PM.

The event is by invitation only - specifically invitation by one of Magenic's sales people. If you are already a Magenic customer and you'd like an invitation, please contact your Magenic AE and let them know. If you are not a Magenic customer please email info@magenic.com and let us know you'd like an invitation.

The event is free, and includes both lunch and a reception at the end of the day. You are responsible for any travel expenses involved in getting to the event. Magenic is arranging a block of rooms at a nearby hotel with special pricing and ground transportation between the conference and hotel.
