SYNOPSIS:
"I started a LinkedIn group: 'Cloud Collaboration Virtual users Group' to help Users Group (UG) members to network and collaborate across UG-type boundaries: amongst IT Pros and dotNET Developers, including other types like Sql Server-ites and Sharepoint'ers. The idea being that using the Cloud to communicate enables an Agile yet fulfilling life with less cost and zero angst - well maybe on the latter. Tools we use include anything hosted "in the Cloud". Techniques used to create collaboration successfully are taken from the book of Agile, or as my friend Alan says, 'the Church of Agile' (showing the fervent attitude of this group). The entire idea is enabling members to drive to higher levels with ease and with help from across disciplines."
Target audience: Members from across disciplines such as IT Pros and dotNET Developers, including other types like Sql Server-ites and Sharepoint'ers. Members who are or wish to learn more about how to use the Cloud to enable themselves in all aspects of an Agile yet fulfilling life.
GUEST PRESENTER:
Dan Wygant
"Founder of HUNTUG.org, VSdotNetUG.org, HowToVS.NET in Huntsville, Alabama – 2000+ members
INeta Membership Manager for all VS.Net User Groups in Al, Ms, and La and Assistant VP of Membership
Founding Board of Director member for Culminis.org
Sr. S/W Consultant 22+ years.
After writing for Window NT Magazine, Editor Mark Smith helped Daniel found the HUntsville windows NT Users Group (HUNTUG) in May 1998. In early 2002 Daniel was chosen to participate in the IT Pro Advisory Council (now known as Cuminis.com) to help Microsoft build a support channel for IT Pro Users Groups such as HUNTUG. Visual Studio & INeta were born on April 10 2002, and in June 2002 Daniel started the Huntsville VS.Net Users Group. Daniel soon became the INETA Membership Mentor for Alabama UGs as well as sitting on the Board of Directors for Cuminis. After years of volunteering, Daniel is now Mentoring UGs in Al, Ms, and La as well as being the INETA Assistant Vice President of Membership Managers.
With the help of Culminis and INeta, HUNTUG has grown from 300 in 2002 to over 2000 members today. HUNTUG's goal has been to educate local techies on all the new MS technologies, without having to travel to a major city, without membership dues of any kind. Working with local User Groups, the IT Pro Advisory Council (now known as Culminis.com), and Microsoft’s Windows Server team lead to Daniel's MVP award for Windows Server Customer Experience"
