Notes from SQLSaturday #4 - Orlando "Tweener"

<div><a href="http://www.sqlsaturday.com/images/sql_saturday_4_tweener_2008.gif"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://www.sqlsaturday.com/images/sql_saturday_4_tweener_2008.gif" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 236px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" /></a><br /><br /><div>I gave an extended version of my presentation about XML Features in SQL 2005 at <a href="http://www.sqlsaturday.com/eventhome.aspx?eventid=5" target="_new">SQLSaturday #4</a> in Orlando on June 7. Aside from a projector SNAFU which caused me to start 10 minutes late my session went well (I think). Attendance was lower than at previous SQLSaturdays, probably due to the longer session format and cost (parking and lunch were not free this time) but I maintain that it's worth going if you learn something you didn't know about - which I did.</div><br /><br /><div>Two more <a href="http://www.sqlsaturday.com/" target="_new">SQLSaturdays</a> have been announced: <a href="http://www.sqlsaturday.com/eventhome.aspx?eventid=7" target="_new">Olympia, WA</a>, on September 1 and <a href="http://www.sqlsaturday.com/eventhome.aspx?eventid=8" target="_new">Cleveland, OH</a>, on August 9. Community participation is what makes SQLSaturday work so if you're in the area I highly recommend attending...or even submitting a topic to present. I guarantee you'll have a good time meeting other people who are as passionate about what they do as you and learning a few new things about the tools we base our careers on.</div><br /><br /><div>Download link for my presentation:<br /><a href="http://kendal-van-dyke.googlegroups.com/web/XML%20Features%20in%20SQL2005%20-%20SQLSat%204.zip?gda=-MMLz1cAAADi9RGzqyDNJx9XMp8MoiJOKBDX-1WAvbEDlThAzsUTqmG1qiJ7UbTIup-M2XPURDQYE_Ituo4LWfLTEEINOVxJDEWdU4cnQ4_2Is0i_XffzHJpDAofuewO4yp2UPiH_QA&gsc=oFYx_gsAAABcJ7lLMvo2LZ0sW_UPZNHz">XML Features in SQL2005 - SQLSat 4.zip</a></div></div>
