Guess who just caught up the Thread? Ha Ha 😀
I'm still having the odd flash back to Red Cubes, Ducks, Everyone wearing Blue shirts (for two reasons), green shirts, kilts, Sentry's driving buses and Jedi's!

Thanks, Koen, and thanks for the tip on the photo. I've finally caught up on the thread after PASS Summit and got a chance to change my Twitter photo.Hey I met you as well on Friday afternoon sitting in the community area with Dan and Mitch - cool didn't make the connection!
Rodders...
Hmm - sure it was me? I didn't spend much time in the Community Zone. Maybe at the Birds of a Feather luncheon at the Source Control table, though?
Friday around 2 30 pm. Dan and Mitch sitting on floor, introduced me to another Sacramento person - thought it as you? Could be wrong though!
In which case you are on the Bucket List for next year with Lynn!

Spot the Threadizens!
I also have some more shots that weren't used. Which I'll sort out - including Gail as a Jedi telling everyone about corruption!

Sadly, a case of mistaken identity - I'm from Memphis, Tennessee. I'm honored to be on your bucket list, though. Keep your fingers crossed that my training budget doesn't faceplant over the next 12 months!

Love the pic of Tony looking like he's too tired to even bother.

Is there any demographic information for who attended the conference?

Stefan,
The only things I saw was this;
http://www.sqlpass.org/summit/2013/AttendeeZone.aspx
And apparently it missed some countries.
And this;

I don't know if you could opt out of being listed.
Out of the UK I knew all bar 3 people! Scary - for them 😉

Now I feel slighted, I only got a handshake from Paul.
I also got a hug from Gail, but she was a bit concerned as she didn't recognize me due to the lack of facial hair.:-D

Nice blog post. Very good for a first one.
I don't work a lot with spatial data, but it's good to know I have to look out for approximate data types.
Look forward to your next post 🙂

Great example and explanation.
And good timing for me, as I am exploring some of the newer spatial stuff.

Thanks, Greg! As I mentioned in the post, I do a lot of work with geospatial data and have learned a TON about both the SQL Server implementation of the spatial data types and the underlying concepts. Working with geospatial data may be the "funnest" part of my job, in fact. What particular aspects of the spatial data functionality are you exploring? If there's a particular topic in that area that you'd like to read more about, I'm open to suggestions for future posts!

Wildly successful summit: I got to have supper with Gail. Sorry I didn't get to say hello, Paul.
