Last Friday I flew to Colorado Springs and participated in the community launch event for SQL Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008, and Windows Server 2008. It was a lot of fun and Julie Yack made sure it was fun. She took the "Heroes Happen Here" theme seriously and had the speakers and volunteers dressed up with t-shirts or red capes. I spoke on SOA. I decided to post my slide deck here so anyone who wanted it can view it. I have to admit I showed the first few slides and then dropped into demos before showing the resource slides at the end.
