Grab your computer and get registered for SQL Saturday 85 in Orlando. If you’re new to the SQL world and have never heard of SQL Saturday, it is a free event put on by the SQL community…for the SQL community… This is an opportunity to learn new things and brush up on some of those less frequently used. Shawn McGeehee and others have worked very hard to make this a really great event, so click on one of the links below and register.

At this event, I will be giving a talk at 4PM on Reporting Services. It is a session designed to give you an overview of what you need to know to get up and running on Reporting Services in 60 minutes. I cover a ton of content in a very short time, but this has proven to be what many have told me… “it was the best session that I attended”. It is always jammed pack, so please arrive early. And since it is the last one of the day, I will have even more time to answer questions afterwards.

For more information, please visit SQLSaturday.com. I’d love for you to attend my session, but there are so many good ones to choose from. If you attend and have read this blog, please come to me and introduce yourself.

And if you don’t already, please be sure to follow me on twitter at @briankmcdonald. Also note that you can subscribe to an RSS feed of my blogs or find me on LinkedIn, SQLBIGeek, SQLServerCentral or SQLServerPedia.
