SharePoint, Dot Net Nuke, Skins & Social Computing

Hey Now Everybody,

In September I attended a great .NET Nuke user group meeting. It was a stellar session held by Sheldon Cohen. This meeting was about 15 people which was different since usually there is 30 - 60ish. Having a small group was good for discussion & easier to meet people. The session started early & was jammed pack. Sheldon covered skins using DNN.

Last week I attended a FLA .NET user group which was on SharePoint & Social Computing presented by Stacy Draper. The session was kind of an introduction to Social Computing & SharePoint including definitions of a blog, email & instant messaging. A point he made was that social networking is just one aspect of social computing which I thought was a good point. As always I learned a few things & it's nice to see some of my friends who I see at many events along with meeting a few new people.

I read a post by one of my favorite Evangelists Mike Benko who has a many great webcasts & a good site @ BenkoTips.com. He was looking at his blog & saw many of his post were regarding events. So I in turn have looked @ my blog & see a direction I want to go. I want to place more personal original content including MSTS exam content, browsers, RSS & efficiency.

Bye for now,
Catto
