Virtualization and “the Cloud” have gained visibility over the last 5 years (at least). Diving into Hyper-V requires dedication and a very good understanding of what goes on with the different layers that need to interact. In browsing through the TechNet Wiki, I ran into the Hyper-V Survival Guide.
Here is the link to the resource:

A while back I decided to get back to speaking engagements and such. For the most part I had kept that to some local User Groups and some conferences like TechEd. I decided to sign up for the INETA Speaker program. Well my first gig came through. I will be speaking at the SharePoint Users of Ft. Wayne, Indiana meeting on July 14th.
The topic is on Building Solutions for SharePoint using Visual Studio LightSwitch.
On June 27th Microsoft released Service Pack 1 for Microsoft Office.
The download can be found at: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=26622
As always, with any installation of a hotfix or service pack, become informed on what the changes/improvements are so you are prepared in the event of mitigation steps being needed. The information for the Service Pack can be found as KB2460049 here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2460049
As we have transitioned into a new release of the Azure Platform with added features, like the VM Role among other great things, it is time to get some additional functionality into Visual Studio as well.
Below you will find links to the tools refresh and also the new training kit for November.

Slowly but surely apps have been coming out for Windows Phone 7, I must admit that was my biggest concern on moving from the iPhone to the Windows Phone. Not the fact apps would come slowly, but when they would come. The iPhone side of things had very nice apps, and moving into a not so populated app landscape was an interesting thought.
Anyway, yes there are apps I miss … but now it is one less!
WordPress released the “for Windows Phone 7” app. Great experience and layout for the tool.
If you are now on Windows Phone 7, check it out.
