vConference Registration
vConfernece registration is open and the conference is just around the corner – make sure you get registered right away – you can even take advantage of $30 SSWUG memberships… but time is running out. SQL Server, Business Intelligence, SharePoint and .NET technologies await, speakers you know and love from traditional in-person conferences, but we bring all the content and speakers to you. This is NOT a webcast; you see the speakers, interact with speakers and attendees, get transcripts of all sessions and a lot more. It’s all included and we’ll have some very cool surprises as well. Get registered today.

I’d love to hear about it! Email me here and let me know.

Our next SSWUG.ORG community event is now open for registration! This one-day event will give you some great information on a number of topics, and it’s free and open to the everyone. Think of it as a virtual (global!) user group meeting. We’ll have information on SQL Server, .NET, SharePoint and other goodies. Here are the sessions:
