LIDNUG: Scott Guthrie session recording now available for download

BrianMadsen — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 05:00:00 GMT

It’s almost like a broken record, but i still can’t stop saying it – Scott Guthrie absolutely rocks!

In his open Q&A session for the Linked .Net Users Group (LIDNUG) he again dazzled us all with his “geeky” brilliance..seriously, i’m starting to think there’s at least a couple of thousand Gu clones walking around for him to retain that much knowledge!

In a 1 1/2hr session he answered questions from the attendees (252) and it was as usual a brilliant session.

For those that missed out – here’s a tidbit…The Silverlight team is working hard on Silverlight 4 already….He owns other coloured polos as well, not just red ones (????).

Lastly, head on over and download the recorded session from our archives – my voice’s still rather raspy/croaky etc, so i elected not to speak during the session (nobody’d be able understand me anyways).

Join us for a Silverlight 3 talk with Tim Heuer at the Linked .Net Users Group on Thursday the 9th of July, 2009 at 10:30AM PDT.

We currently have 140 registered to attend and it promises to be a seriously cool presentation.

As usual, the event is presented via Live Meeting!

LIDNUG has also been looking for a new logo and voting has started for the submissions.

See the submissions here and vote: http://www.lidnug.org/community.aspx

Voting will close by the end of the month!

We’ve also reached an astonishing number of members – with now more than 27,000 registered members!

So, even though it’s summer in the northern hemisphere there’s still plenty of opportunities left to learn about all the new stuff coming out!

Since 2009 saw the kickoff for the Linked .Net Users Group, with both some hugely successful events and a massive amount of positive feedback, we’re definitely not resting on our laurels!

August will see us have both Scott Hanselman and Scott Guthrie present, on the 13th of August and 25th of August respectively!

As usual we’ll be recording all of our events and make them available from the LIDNUG web site.

LIDNUG: Double the Scott in August

BrianMadsen — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 05:00:00 GMT

The cat’s out of the box (or is that the dog?) as the Linked .Net Users Group will see Scott Guthrie return to our monthly meetings in August.

Last time we had Scott around, we had a massive 518 attendees to the event and it was a resounding success!

Obviously Scott enjoyed himself and promised he’d be back – so, here’s following up on that promise with a tentative date of the 25th of August, 2009 (that’s 25th US time, will be 26th for us in the AustralAsia region, my bad).

Did i say Double the Scott?? yessir, indeed!

Scott Hanselman will also be grazing us with a visit, albeit his first for us (nudge nudge!!) – The date we’ve currently put down is the 13th of August, 2009.

What will we be talking about? we’ll see, it’s not in concrete yet, but i’m guessing (probably rightly so) that The Gu will do another Q&A for us, since it’ll be right off the back of Tech-Ed US!

We’ll let you know where to register as soon as we get a full green light from both!
