37 Pieces of Flair

Channel 9 has asked people to add some Flair the their blogs as a way to generate a"viral marketing" interest in Microsoft's Professional Developer Conference '05 this September in Los Angeles. Jeff Sandquist imtimates we can upload our own flair attempts to Channel 9, but I don't see where anyone has, yet, so I'll post mine here. (Everyone is probably waiting to see what Jaime comes up with.) So, without further ado, here's my flair:

(Contest over)

"You know what, I do want to express myself, okay." Channel 9 is also having a Blogging my way to PDC contest and I plan to enter! I realize I'm currently making a living as an SMS Administrator, but I've always had a secret passion to create code as well! So, all you MyITforum folks, friends, family, or anyone else, please send me reasons you think I should win so I can include them in my entry! I'm looking for testimonials, reasons I'd make a good attendee, or anything else you can think of. Either comment here or send me an email to reedracer[at]gmail.com Hurry up, there is probably a deadline!

Trying w.bloggar and RSSBandit

I'm trying a new (for me) freeware News Aggregator called RSSBandit. While trying it out, I noticed it has an option to post news items right from the reader using w.bloggar so I decided to try it as well. So far, the experience has been good! I'll let you know how it goes moving forward.
