Just a quick reminder that I will be presenting a developer-focused customer success story tonight at the D/FW SharePoint Community meeting in Las Colinas.  I’ve got some good demos and a bunch of cool code to share so if you’re in the Dallas/Ft.

I just returned from the UK where I had a chance to drop in on my good buddy Nick Swan for lunch and a couple of beers.  So while I catch up on all my email and backlog of blog posts, here are some reminders for user group meetings in December:   December 10th SharePoint […]

Now, to be honest, I could have used a […]
