Passed 70-561

To be honest, I didn’t expect this!

I just found out I’ve also passed Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5, ADO.NET Applications.

I remember I was pretty tired, and was still a bit exhausted after taking 70-562 the previous day. About 3/4 through I noticed the tiredness was catching up on me as I was having trouble focusing (Excom’s crumby old test computer doesn’t help – nothing like a CRT monitor with the refresh frequency set way to low to wear you out quicker). The thought even crossed my mind that maybe I should give up and leave. But then I figured, no, I won’t get this opportunity again so try and give it my best shot. Looks like it was a good thing I stuck it out :-)

Heroes Happen 2008 Demo Competition entry

Rob should be happy, I’ve finally got around to recording my entry for Microsoft’s demo competition!

I demonstrated this earlier this month at the Adelaide SQL Server User Group, and then did a slightly longer version at CodeCampSA.

Welcome Nigel and Richard

Today Nigel Spencer and Richard Hollon joined us at ABB.

Timothy has dubbed us the “Dream Team”. I’m not sure if that means we’re really good, or we’re really sleepy.
