Anyone coming to InsideSQL tomorrow?
Me! (But you probably already knew that)

I'm going- looking forward to at least one of your sessions each. It's really hard to pick one when they clash (e.g. Gail's waits one clashes with Hugo's query optimizer one).

There are some amazing dev sessions and I really wanted to go, but it would have meant buying the time off, and being so close to Bits, that's a lot of money on conferences in a two-month period. There isn't a conference culture here. Yet.

SQL Saturday Manchester, on July 23rd - who (apart from Hugo) will be going?
No joy for me there.
I am touring user groups in Ohio this week. Cleveland today. Toledo tomorrow. Columbus on Wednesday and finally Cincinnati on Thursday. If anyone is in the area...

SQL Saturday Manchester, on July 23rd - who (apart from Hugo) will be going?
I've got my name down so I should be there. The pre-holiday shopping trip will have to wait until the week after (Which also coincides with payday but Mrs B doesn't need to know that 🙂 )

I know, and I was looking forward to that session of Hugo's. 🙁

Enjoy InsideSQL. I would love to come, but the timing doesn't work and I'm a bit traveled out.

I hope to be there, and am registered for it. But my wife is to have a couple of cataract operations and a couple of more serious investigative operations some time this summer, and if the health system assigns the SQL Saturday date as the date for one of them I'll miss the SQL Saturday because I'll be at the hospital, not in Manchester.

I am seriously considering removing my LinkedIn profile all of a sudden. I did not join to be marketed to. According to this article:
Microsoft wants to use LinkedIn as a database of professional information and distribution channel for its software systems. LinkedIn gains additional financing and access to millions of people who could potentially join its network.

Let's face it, so many LinkedIn users tend to inundate all of their contacts with Facebook-type drivel, quizzes, life-enhancing documents and suchlike on a regular basis anyway, so will Microsoft's sales bumph really add much to it?

We don't know yet, but I guess we'll find out soon. I heard about the announcement on the news during yesterday's drive home and wasn't quite sure what to make of it. I know MS feels like it "missed the internet" and wants to be a big player in everything, but I don't know if this move makes sense to me. Then again, I'm not a CEO for a huge company.

I kind of feel like they're going to turn this into a huge data-mining operation and ignore what LinkedIn was originally set up for. I guess I can wait and see, but still... Not really sure about this one.

It really has just become a huge data mining operation for recruiters anyway. The only real difference I see is that MS will start pushing more and more. Such a cool idea for a community that just totally failed. Yet another example of a great idea that fell short as soon as people got involved. 😉
