If you atteneded TechEd last year, then you are familar with the Technical Learning Center (TLC).  Well this year it is gong to be better than ever!!  This year the following tracks will share one of the TLC areas:  Security, Windows Infrastracture, Client and Management.

Last year they called us the RED area, but if you were there and not color blind you would have clearly seen that it was ROARNGE (our signage was orange not red).  This year we were proposed to be RED this year with an assurance that they would get it right.  Well, we decided to be YELLOW this year instead (as it is the only Windows color left for us to choose from).  I figure there is no way to mess up YELLOW!  I really happen to like yellow!  And my office was pranked last year while I was out at Blackhat and everything was covered and changed to yellow.  Her at MS we are not allowed to paint our walls, so I have left mine yellow and my office is very BRIGHT.  I have a nickname of Miss  and I guess it does fit.    We have new products to feature this year and even more experts than ever before!!  

I am trying to decide what "fun thing" to purchase for our TLC area.  I might have to make sure we have enought caffeine with coffee, or smoothies.  Maybe this year, I can have one day with a little happy hour in the yellow TLC???  What about a give-a-way??  What kind of prizes do you attendees want??  What about these:  Zunes, Xbox360's, flat panel monitors, smartphones??  I really want to make sure that you all are getting things that you want!!  I think the GPS things are cool too, but you tell me.  So far, I know that the TechEd bloggers are reading this, but I am not sure who else is........

Back to work and getting ready for another TechEd Track Owner Meeting!
