Well, through the kindness of the Australian Microsoft team, I will be evangelizing blogging at TechEd New Zealand and TechEd Australia (at the Gold Coast). The first thing I'll be doing is presenting on the Power of Blogging at TechEd Auckland's Student...

Well I'm back from Amsterdam and I have a few more photos to add to the collection: The sign I put up to get people to talk to me in the Community Lounge. Here Korby Parnell talks to Regional Directors and enjoys the canals. Channel 9 guy...

So I may have a TechEd curse where I lose my identificaiton and then find it again. Orlando I just misplaced my wallet in the folds of my backpack and had a panicked 2 hours. Amsterdam I left my backpack on the tram or at the tram station - it's...

I loved this video. Robert Scoble talks to Steve B about a bunch of different topics - what is evangelism, what do we want to do with developers, blogging, what does he say to criticisms that we don't innovate. Any doubts about their respect for each...

Attention American comrades. You want to know what the most embarassing thing you can endure for your country? Sit around with a bunch of folks from Europe - including the likes of Clemens Vasters , Christian Weyer, and Ingo Rammer as they discuss...

Well Eileen and I made it to Amsterdam in one piece – even after the revels that was the Microsoft UK company summer party. Shoutout to my boss Sandy Khaund – I am having serious party coolness envy! They had Madness , Basement Jaxx and Norman Jay...

Ok, so a rounding sound of appreciation for the patient UK user group folks who had to put up with my Webcast today - the phones didn't work at first, my laptop cut out of live meeting and then Eileen's would and she'd use mine - and I'm just enough of...
