My First Tech.Ed Experience

Last week I attended Tech.Ed Australia for the first time. It's hosted in Gold Coast this year. Overall it was a fun experience. I got some good technical info out of most of the sessions I attended. But I look forward to viewing more recorded sessions on the US Tech.Ed DVD set.

Several areas that I'll be sinking my teeth into: BI, SQL2008, VS2008, SharePoint 2007, Silverlight, .NET 3.0/3.5 and Virtual Earth.

One tip I'll remember next time, if I am traveling interstate, is to book a hotel within walking distance of the convention. Makes it easier in case you forget your delegate pass (which I almost did).

PS. Welcome to my first blog post!
