I wanted to thank everyone who spoke, volunteered, and attended the first SharePoint Saturday Raleigh event. Talking to folks after the event and listening to some feedback from twitter everything seems pretty positive so far which I’m glad to hear.  We’re already looking forward to another event next year and we’ll work hard to improve on our success. Look for future announcements through the Triangle SharePoint User Group.

I really apologize to the folks at my session, projector issues cut my time in half and then VM slowness and beta stability problems killed the rest of the session. The really embarrassing part came afterwards when I noticed in my rush to move rooms after the projector failed I never plugged in my laptop. No Power = Power Saving = CPU Suckage = VM Useless. Hopefully if you attended my session you got some useful information from our discussion.  As promised I’ve already started to work on my webcast with the full demo\slide deck so I should have that available for download\streaming this week for folks.

On another note i will be presenting this same session (hopefully with better luck!) to the Sandhills SharePoint User Group in Fayetteville on Thursday November 19th. So if you missed my presentation or want to give it another go you may want to check out that meeting, its a smaller group so there will be lots of opportunity for questions and discussion.

Here are some pictures for the speaker social, as you can see everyone was having a pretty good time.
