TechEd 2008
At Microsoft’s mega-geek-fest again, TechEd 2008. As always, it takes place at the SkyCity Convention Centre in Auckland but it looks like the 2,000 or so attendees meant there wasn’t enough space, so a “spillover” venue has been created at the Crowne Plaza hotel.
Did a very interesting with Neil Roodyn, a Regional Director for Microsoft (kind of an honorary Super MVP title) but wasn’t given anywhere near enough time unfortunately, to talk about Windows Mobile and other things.
Also popped into see Maurico from Geekzone, who is a Windows Mobile MVP as well, talk about err, Windows Mobile together with Rick Anderson. Good talk actually, in particular by Rick who is very animated and keeps a fast pace with witty comment. Mauricio kindly asked me to wave from the audience, which I did, much to everyone’s amusement. Cheers for that, Mauricio… revenge will be sweet.
