As you might be able to guess from the title, I’m at Tech-Ed 2009 this week in sunny (well, actually somewhat cloudy) Los Angeles, CA. If you weren’t able to make it in person, you can still catch a number of sessions online, and of course you can follow the buzz on twitter, if you’re so inclined.

Without further ado, here are the events listed in Community Megaphone for the next week (or so) for the Mid-Atlantic area (plus online events you can view from anywhere)…this list now includes events imported from the UGSS event calendar, and all events entered in Community Megaphone are also now automatically synced to the UGSS event calendar:

  • Tuesday, May 12, 2009 6:30 PM: Hampton Roads .NET Users Group - May Meeting
    Crafting software is one of the most rewarding and challenging tasks that one can engage in. As Fred Brooks said in “The Mythical Man Month”:
    “The programmer, like the poet, works only slightly removed from pure thought-stuff. He builds his castles in the air, from air, creating by exertion of the imagination”.
    Building software is exciting because we truly are limited only by our imaginations, creativity, and the occasional budget. But this can be a problem as well. With an infinite level of paths in front of us, which direction do we take? How do we know if we are taking the right path? In this talk we are going to look at a few strategies for large system design, and discuss some ways in which we can make our systems better.
