PDC Distilled and Holiday Party
If you did not make it to Microsoft's Professional Developers Conference, you've surely heard of some of the announcements made there. Cloud computing is in your future, along with a number of new and enhanced technologies. On December 11th, a number of our members who were at PDC will give overview of technologies that will be important in the very near future. Expect code examples and more.

We will have special items for the prize drawing, including an XBox. Since it is the holiday season,we will collect NEW toys for those who would otherwise not have any. Please bring new, unwrapped toys for boys or girls. Thank you!

Microsoft ArcReady: Professional Patterns On The Job

ArcReady in Indianapolis on November 20, 2008 from 9:00 – 12:00

You're smart. You deliver. What more could your company want from you?  Why don’t they come to you for the big technical decisions? Why won’t they listen to your proposals? It seems like everyone has an agenda and they’re doing everything they can to kill your great ideas.   Join us as we focus on the soft skills that architects need to master. Learning these skills will boost your emotional intelligence and help you become a more professional, well rounded contributor. You’ll gain insight into the architect’s role as leader, influencer, and business professional and learn how to leverage your position to become a positive force within your organization.
