MVP Summit 2008

What an amazing week it was. The MVP global summit 2008 just got over today and it was really awesome meeting the product teams at Microsoft. Microsoft as a company had evolved a lot in terms of listening to its partners. The sessions and the interactions during the summit enforced this. There were ample learning opportunities as well on what is to come in the next few months. The highlight of the whole event was to hear the keynotes of Ray Ozzie and Steve Balmer in person. Got the pictures from the summit uploaded at: http://picasaweb.google.com/pras79/SeattleMVPSummit2008

Travelling to Seattle-MVP summit 2008

I just reached Seattle and will be out of the country for the next 2-3 weeks. My main baggage is still unfortunately stranded in Singapore and hopefully i will get it within the next 1-2 days. Meanwhile have to buy some essentials to manage until then.
I am attending the MVP global summit 2008 at the Microsoft campus in Seattle. Got a whole lot of exciting sessions lined up with the launches of VS.NET 2008, SQL Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008. The visit to the Microsoft campus is something i always cherish. It's also a golden opportunity to meet some fellow MVPs and Microsofties in person.
After the MVP summit I need to travel to Austin and Minneapolis on some work and personal engagements.
