This week I am in Boston for TechEd 2006. Other than my issue getting on wireless, the event has been really good. Every timeslot has 10+ sessions to choose from, covering a wide range of topics. I have been sitting in many of the Reporting Services and SQL 2005 sessions, but have also caught a few of the Architechure sessions.

Last night we had our .Net User Group BoF. Nick, Javier, and Eric were the main hosts and did a great job of discussing many of the things we did well with building our user group, and a few of things we could have done better. It was very interesting to hear feedback from some of the attendees. There was a guy who helps with the Iceland User Group who provided some great ideas for things to help build a user group. The one I liked the most was the book share program. The basic idea was that the UG would maintain a collection of books, and would let members exchange a book for one on the table. This is something I'd like to do with the IADNUG.

Welp, session is over. I'll post more later.
