PDC 2009 is coming – in case you weren't aware (unlikely, right?) – to Los Angeles November 17-19, with workshops on November 16. Be there for the latest and greatest news from the Microsoft product groups as well as external experts. There will be hundreds of sessions and dozens of great speakers, like Scott Hanselman, Cameron Skinner, Juval Lowy, Don Box, as well as keynotes from Ray Ozzie, Bob Muglia and Scott Guthrie, to name a few.

I won't be going this year, but I am sending five folks from my team (Brian Prince, Jennifer Marsman, Dave Bost, Mike Benkovich, and Chris Koenig) to mix and mingle with attendees and folks from their local communities, learn what they can, and bring back the highlights to share with said communities. And, yes, I am a touch jealous of my own team – I would really like to be there as well.

Check out the PDC 2009 site and register. It'll be a great event with loads of great information and insights.
