Hi Dan,

 

We are holding meetings every three months right now, thus by INETA rules we don’t qualify *yet*.  The next meeting is November 20th

 

You are more than welcome to come down anytime and speak.  Love to have you.

 

-Keith

Subject: [hubcitynug] Anyone getting together this month?

 

Hi folks,
Are any of you interested in meeting this month?
If you need a speaker, I'm interested in helping. I am the INETA
Users Group Mentor for Mississippi. My personal goal is to approve
you for INETA membership ASAP.

If I can't find one local to the gulf-coast, I'll try to send one
from INETA or help you myself.

Indeed, if your leader will simply register this Users Group with
INETA, I will attempt to convince a big-name speaker to let INETA
send em' to ya on short order. Or I'll die tryin'.

I'm wishing very much for your success, and would even go as far as
to drive there from Fayetteville Tennessee to support you. If you
like I can share some of what I've learned about Silverlight 2 RC0 vs
WPF3.5SP1 regarding XAML.

I like informal meetings with constant Q&A to drive the presentation.
I will be here in Huntsville Alabama for tomorrow's weekly
http://HowToVS.Net SIG meeting and would happily send you the
LiveMeeting URL if you'd like. We simply meet for 1hr or so and talk
tech. We ask questions and we answer - or seek answers via code on
the fly. Like an Ad-Hoc meeting where everyone can help with the
presentation - lotsa laptops. We use ShareView sometimes too to avoid
the need for a projector.

If you can set a stage for a presenter, let me know and I'll approve
your UG right away since you've already meet a few time anyhow. INETA
will be more than happy to support your Users Group efforts in
Mississippi! You have really started something here to build your
dotNet community.

BTW, I did a podcast on TechNet Radio here on Users Groups:

imageIf you are in the surrounding Hattiesburg, MS area (Jackson, Mobile, Gulfport, Biloxi, New Orleans, Slidell, Vicksburg, Meridian, Laurel, etc) there is a free MSDN event coming to Hattiesburg on September 19th called the MSDN Southern Fried Roadshow.

The event is a four hour event with Developer Evangelist Glen Gordon and Architect Evangelist Chad Brooks.  Hattiesburg is the last stop of a five city tour they are doing throughout the South.

What is an MSDN Roadshow?

For those that have never gone to an event like this, this is where Microsoft sends their Evangelist out into the heart of America to make sure the development community is familiar with the latest and greatest software.  Think of it as free training!  There is no sales pitch, their job is to simply tell you about the latest releases and answer questions.  Larger events are done in bigger cities typically earlier in the year like Chicago, Detroit, etc.  Now is your chance to get the same material locally in your own area.  Definitely worth the price of admission!

Agenda

  • See what’s new in Windows Server 2008:  Hypervisor Technology, IIS7, and others. 
  • SQL 2008 is also packed with goodies for Developers;  see the geospatial capabilities as well as the LINQ enhancements. 
  • Myriad of enhancements that come with the .Net Framework 3.5!
  • REST with WCF, ADO.NET Data Services, and ASP.NET MVC

More information can be found on Glen Gordon’s blog.

Quick Facts

  • Cost – Free
  • Time – 8:00 – 12:00
  • Food – Yes, food will be provided
  • Giveaways – Yes!
  • Where – William Carey University, 498 Tuscan Avenue, Thomas Business Building, Kresge Room, Hattiesburg, MS 39401
  • Registration Required - Yes

Doug,

 

It was great to meet you the other night at the meeting.  I really appreciate you keeping the dialogue going after the meeting. 

 

To answer your question about flyers, yes there are/were flyers!  Vanessa Molden at Professional Outreach had flyers made up.  There were supposed to be some put up around campus (I’m not sure if you saw them or not).  For the meeting in November we could use your assistance with that for sure.   I’ll put you in contact with Vanessa later on once we settle on who the speaker is going to be so you can assist with that.  The flyers Vanessa had made up looked really good.

First off, I would like to introduce myself. I'm Doug Burkhalter. For those that attended the meeting yesterday, I was in the back behind Aubrey. For those that didn't make it...well, I won't use my first message to insult people, because I'm sure you had a good reason, but still...:D Anyhow, I would just like to say I'm glad to see some more technical groups popping up around here.

I would also like to mention that I have started to spread the word about the group around campus in what limited fashion I can; I've told one teacher about it so far, but he's working on a large project in .NET with several other people.

Also, I was wondering about any sort of flyers or such for posting around campus. I can make something up, but I don't have the best design sense in the world. But I'm all for spreading the message, posting flyers on boards all around, and so on. There are a lot of students around here in classes that cover .NET, so I think it'd be good to recruit that way.

Feel free to veto or offer or so such as you think. After all, I'm brand new, not trying to take over, just wanting to do my part.

Thanks for the great group, and I look forward to the future with it!

FIRST MEETING AUGUST 14th!
Hey everyone.  I know a lot of you have been waiting patiently for some news about the group.  Well good news is here!  Aubrey and I met with staff at USM this week and secured a location for us on campus.  This is a huge bonus for the group to be working with the University.  A special thanks to Fred and Vanessa at the Office of Professional Development and Outreach ( http://www.usm.edu/profdev_edoutreach/ ) for their help and support.  Our first meeting is scheduled for August 14th.  More information to follow throughout the next several weeks.

GEEK DINNER JULY 10th WITH MICHAEL NEEL
For July even though we are not planning on having a meeting but we are planning on having a special guest come in who will be in the area doing a tour at other user groups like ours.  Due to the timing and lack of location for the month of July we decided to keep things simple and do a Geek Dinner next Thursday night while Michael is in town.  What is a geek dinner?  It is just a time for everyone to get together and socialize and talk tech.  We'll pick a location soon (if you have any ideas throw them out) and let everyone know. 

ABOUT MICHAEL
Michael C. Neel is a Digital Media Developer with Jewelry Television, independent consultant with ViNull Software and Vice President of the East Tennessee .Net Users Group (ETNUG). He has been published in asp.netPro magazine and is a regular speaker at .Net conferences and user groups.

So mark your calendars for July 10th around 7:00.  Place and location TBD.

Hi John,
 
Thanks for emailing to the group.  We have yet to set an official location to hold the meetings yet at this time.  We are still trying to lock down a location at USM.  I was hoping to get the first meeting off the ground in July.  Hopefully we'll be able to work out the details and then start shouting from the roof tops about the group.
 
Glad you found us, look forward to connecting and meeting you as well.

First let me say welcome to the new subscribers. 
 
I cannot make arrangements for locations without knowing *when* we are going to try to meet up as a group.  I need your help to make sure the date I think we should go with is feesible. 
 
I put together a calendar with all of the .Net user groups that are near us (i left one off but it is on the second thursday, the Ft. Walton group).  I attached it to this email.  The days that are in red are the days we could potentially meet.  Only Mon, Tues, Thurs are days we can meet on BTW.
 
In picking a time, the thing we want to take into consideration is we want to coordinate with other groups so we can bring in a higher level speaker and have them do a tour of several groups in one week (similar to what Sara Ford is doing in August).  Based on the calendar, either the 3rd Tuesday or the 3rd Thursday would give us the most momentum to do that.  Looking at the groups we'd coordinate with and their locations, the 3rd Thursday gives us a closer radius to bring in someone and coordinate with Birmingham and New Orleans.  Having it on the 3rd Thursday would allow a speaker to travel between Birmingham, NO, and Hattiesburg which would be a lot better than having someone drive from Huntsville to H'burg to Lafayette, LA. 
Unless anyone raises any objectings or reasons as to why we should not host the group on the 3rd Thursday, that is the date I am going to set. 
I know the board discussed meeting on Tuesday but I think our better choice would be Thursday.  Any objections?
 
 
Thank you,

Hey Sara!

 

I'm going to try to coordinate with the other groups and see if we can't make it happen.  We don't even have a place to meet yet or a scheduled time.  Still trying to work those details out.

I wanted to welcome everyone to the Hub City Nug mailing list that has already joined.  Our web site is setup and rolling.  You can find the web site here:
 
 
I just posted an official annoucement to the site a few minutes ago, you can find it here.
 
 
It contains a general review of the group as well as how to stay informed.  I suggest everyone subscribe to the site's RSS feed at:
 
 
We need everyone to help spread the word.  If you have a blog, blog about it, if you have Facebook, Facebook it, and Twitter, Twitter it, etc.
 
Thanks!
