I am thrilled to share the news that the St. Louis .NET community has banded together to host the St. Louis Day of .NET on Saturday, December 13 at the Center for the Application of Information Technology at Washington University in St. Louis (here are the directions). Several people from around St. Louis and the surrounding areas will be speaking, including a couple of the folks on my team as well as my peers in Developer & Platform Evangelism.

Topics include:

• Microsoft Windows 7
• Windows Azure and Microsoft's "Cloud Computing" Initiative
• Silverlight
• SharePoint
• Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)
• Distributed Caching using Microsoft "Velocity"
• The future of C#
• SQL Server 2008

Join the crew for an amazing event. I'll be there, and so should you!
