Last week was a great week for Cloud computing in Phoenix! It started on Tuesday, 12/9/08 with David Chou and Woody Pewitt presenting at the Microsoft Architect Forum at the Microsoft office (see earlier post).  They have shared their presentations at our new Strategy and Architecture site 

On Wednesday, Rob Bagby and Scott Cate headlined a series of presentations culled from the recent Professional Developers Conference in LA.  It's part of the MSDN Unleashed series of sessions around the country. BTW, checkout MS Events for info. on upcoming sessions in your area.  They also have podcasts, virtual labs and lots of other compelling content.

Thursday evening wrapped events up with the innagural Neudesic sponsored Azure/Cloud Computing Users Group.  I was there along with a few hearty souls interested in where Microsoft is headed and to start the dialog in the community.  Michael Collins from neudesic will lead the group.  I can't say how far the discussions will extend, but judging by the initial group we will cover all the major players in the Cloud space.
