Partying with Palermo

As many know, the Microsoft MVP Global Summit is happening this week. As if the affair wasn't a big enough deal, Jeffrey Palermo threw a big party at Jillians in Seattle.  I went last night just to talk to some of this industry's most well known bloggers and influencers who were in attendance.  Rory even decided to show up -- albeit fashionably late.  I was shocked to see so many people show up.  With the sponsors taking care of cool books, free software, t-shirts, grab bags, a buffet of free food and an open bar tab I guess I shouldn't be surprised at all! 

I brought my camcorder but the crowd was too big to get much of anything useful out of it. I'll try to rip some still images from what I was able to get last night and post them when I can.  It was great to get to talk to a few people last night and find out how they were using IIS, what they liked, what they didn't like, and what they want more information about.  I'll be sure to get this information in front of the right people.  A huge "thank you" goes out to everyone who was willing to talk last night.

If you are in town for the MVP Global Summit, and you'd like to talk about IIS, please email me and I will be glad to get in touch with you before you leave town.  Thanks again.
