TechEd Twitter Accounts:

  • @TechEd_NA – the official feed.  Retweets planners and vendors, runs contests now and then.
  • @RobNic_TechEd – Twitter feed for a TechEd planner.  You can check his photos to see the swag like the water bottle and backpack.
  • @TheKrewe – hard-partying TechEd attendees with a private Facebook page that denied me entry.  See, you guys think I have all kinds of inside connections, and I can’t even get into a damn Facebook page.  Famous my rear.

Did I miss anything?  Is there anywhere I should be?  I might have missed some cool sessions – there’s just so many with conflicting times.  So many sessions, so little time…

      Heh – I found it because when I saw Russinovich was speaking, I searched by his name too. Anything he wants to present, I wanna be in the audience.
