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…

Wow, great job unearthing that “Effective Technical Talks” session in the Security and Identity track. I never would have found that one.
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.
Brent…DM me your FB email addy and I’ll send you an invite:)
Oh, you are just MEAN. You’re not even following me on Twitter, so I can’t send you a DM. I’ve been denied TWICE. DOH!
I’m brento@brentozar.com. 😉
also, Tuesday night Double Take software is sponsoring Cluster Funk. Always a good time!
