Here we go, another attempt at blogging!

So much has happened since I last wrote, 3.5 years ago. I have been running a user group, Toronto Mobile .NET Developers Group for the past 18 months and it has been a fantastic experience. Organizing a user group/meetup can be a lot of work and it is very rewarding. I have met so many brilliant and awesome people, learned how to organize and promote the events and picked up some great skills.

As part of the group, I have been presenting regularly at my group and others. Presenting tends to play to my strengths, I can be informal and casual and I get immediate feedback from the community. That being said, text is powerful; it can be skimmed, indexed, quoted and referenced much easier. With that in mind, I am going to give blogging a more serious, earnest effort moving forward.

Now, all that being said, I will be speaking/presenting at the upcoming events:
