There are loads of events coming up over the next while in Ireland and Northern Ireland, with a lot of new speakers as well. INDA has talks lined up in Dublin and Waterford on .NET debugging and Agile programming. IrishDev have teamed up with the Irish Internet Association to put on a seminar on Web 2.0.
NIMTUG has their first session for IT Pros up in Belfast featuring the newest member of our Developer and Paltform Group, Dave Northey. Dave will be following up the Belfast TechNet afternoon with a talk on how to extend MOM and SMS to monitor and manage non-Windows environments. So if you are in Belfast, and interested in IT Pro topics - make sure you head along and say hello to Dave.
If you are interested in web development - you should also make sure to check out MIX 06 - or PDC for Web Developers, as we have heard it called. I know that AJAX and Atlas are causing quite a bit of excitement internally here among our team - so if you want to be one of the first to hear the details (or just want an excuse to go live the high life in Las Vegas! :), then check out the details here.
