The lineup of sessions, location, and registration is available from the SQL Saturday web site at http://www.sqlsaturday.com/eventhome.aspx?eventid=18.

From what I saw, the Atlanta Code Camp yesterday, March 14, was a success. Attendance was great, there were many sessions, and the location (Georgia Gwinnett College) is very well suited for a Code Camp. Thank you to those who attended my sessions on the ADO.NET Entity Framework and SQL Server 2008 FILESTREAM. Unfortunately, we … Continue reading Atlanta Code Camp 2009 Wrap-Up
The 2009 edition of the Atlanta Code Camp is scheduled for March 13, 2009 at Georgia Gwinnett College.

Post a comment to this blog if you are interested … Continue reading Atlanta Code Camp 2009 Coming Up
The Atlanta Code Camp 2007 (http://www.atlantacodecamp.com) was another successful CodeCamp event. I presented a session on creating a custom extender with ASP.NET AJAX RC. If you were present in Montgomery, you'll find the download from the Atlanta Code Camp useful, as it has been revised for RC (I used Beta 2 during the Montgomery CodeCamp). … Continue reading Atlanta Code Camp 2007 Session
Yesterday's third Alabama Code Camp was a good experience for me. Contrary to my post on 9/12, I did not do a talk on Windows Communication Foundation, but added a session on creating an Extender with ASP.NET AJAX ("Atlas"). The evening before the event, I was asked to take over a session for Joe Healy, … Continue reading Alabama Code Camp 3 Experience
The Alabama Code Camp is having its third edition on Saturday, October 28th in Montgomery (Auburn University at Montgomery). I missed the second edition, because Huntsville is quite a while away from Troy. However, Montgomery is probably as close as it will come, so I will be there. I have submitted a proposal for a … Continue reading Alabama Code Camp No. 3: October 28, 2006
(Note: This is my first "live" blog post...) I am in Atlanta for Windows Vista Developer Training. I've had a chance to get used to the user experience (UX) in Windows Vista, and I like it. The developer side of Vista is exciting also, but is clearly still in the works. The lab exercises that … Continue reading Windows Vista Developer Training: WCF Lab 2 Update
The Alabama Code Camp last Saturday was, from my perspective, a success. I thought that attendance was high and the quality of the sessions I attended good to very high. Thanks to the sponsors for enabling this (including a "free lunch"). The only side of the event I liked less was the venue. Computer classrooms … Continue reading Alabama Code Camp: Great Event

It's an event for developers by developers, and registration is free (but required). You can find registration information, directions, and session listings at their web site. I will be … Continue reading Alabama Code Camp: October 29th
