The Jacksonville Code Camp needs sponsors. The Code Camp is a free event for developers now in its forth year.
Sponsorships can be as low as $25.00. The code camp needs to raise $10,000 for the entire event.
This years camp should be very good, because there will be tracks for .NET, Java, Ruby, Flex and ColdFusion.
I have not been blogging much over the last month. I have had a few funerals and weddings that I have been attending. I have recently switched jobs. I was working for Idea Integration as a Microsoft Consultant, mainly around SharePoint and SQL Server consulting, but I left them at the end of last month. By the way, if you are looking for SQL Server or SharePoint consulting, go with Idea Integration.
I am now working as a .NET developer for HCR Software in Jacksonville. We build web based software for Human Resources.
I hope to blog more about .NET, but I am still active in the ColdFusion and Flex space. I plan on having meetings next month for JaxFusion user group on Flex and ColdFusion.
2007 has been an exiting year for me because of many changes in my life. The ColdFusion 8 launch was very exiting and has been successful for Adobe. I wish I had more time to devote to the JaxFusion user group this year to cover all of the new features.
I also started a new job working as a technical consultant. I did that to get more hands on experience using the BI features in SQL Server 2005. I also have had the opportunity to work with Microsoft Sharepoint and .NET this year. It has been great to learn new things related to these other products.
I just wanted to wish everyone a happy and safe new year.
