Is this the one you mean? http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/2645/
Wow! That is good. I must have missed it the first time round. I agree with the herd on this one Steve, you ought to repost it.

Sue moved over to PM'ing full time, not really much SQL Server last year. I actually was thinking to send her an email and see how she was doing as I ran across something else recently that reminded me.
I'll rerun that one. I've scheduled re-runs on Fridays for a few months since content has been a touch thin. Hint, hint, new articles anyone? Up for more complaints on your writing? Grant, Grant? Scary DBA articles?

I've got one that's getting tech-reviewed at the moment. I know you don't require that, but on this particular subject I thought it necessary. Don't know when I'll get it back.
Any subjects that you'd particularly like to see?

Any subjects are fine. Beginner articles always get reads, nichey ones look great and make the site wider.
If there's something you see a lot, write about it. If you're interested in it, write about it. The MVP group watches the site and we send them stats for people (posting, articles), so there's good exposure here.

I really do want to write up an artile on the GDR version of DBPro. I'm still fighting with it at the moment so, the article is waiting until I win (or lose) the fight. I hope I get it together soon. I'm presenting the stupid thing on Saturday at New England Data Camp v1.0.

I have my third article that I have started on. I am currently working on building the test data. Since I am working off 4 year old mental notes, it's taking a little longer to come up with the inspired base to work on.

I've got a series on Profiler/Trace in process, building from real basic to a little more advanced (server-side traces, etc...). I was waiting on getting a new laptop, done, and I owed JumpstartTV a couple of videos that I am doing first.

Oh yeah, I've got to do some stuff for JumpStart too. I need to get that goofy Plantronics thing first.

Ah. I was considering writing on server-side traces, but since you have something in progress, I'll think up something else. How far from done are they? I'm busy with something where it would be useful to be able to link to a good article on server-side traces.

Who knows how good it will be? I have a basic outline of the "series" it is based on a Profiler presentation I did at the Orlando User Group and SQLSaturday, I didn't get to server-side traces there, but did the research then. I've got the first, basic Intro to Profiler article probably 75% done. I can make the server-side trace set up the 2nd one in the series. I can build on the first one by showing how to save the trace definition and then starting and managing the server-side trace using T-SQL. Finish with managing it using Agent jobs. What do you think?

Heh... Someone (another MVP, actually) recently suggested that I write an article having to do with optimizing cursors for those who can't or won't think in terms of set based solutions... 😉

Sounds great.
Though if you've already planned something else out, no need to change it for me. It would be handy to have an article to refer to, not an absolute necessity.

Here's a good blog post about people just implementing solutions form the internet or forums without caring why:

I found this on a tweet by Jonathan Kehayias.

I don't see why you both couldn't write an article on the same topic. With your different backgrounds, knowledge sets and approaches I'll bet both would offer up unique information. There would be some repitition, but repitition is one of the tools of learning.
