Also, last month we were finally able to get our first successful Live Meeting recording – PASSMN May 2010 Follow-up. And this week the Microsoft BI Conference and TechEd is going on down in New Orleans, so there should be a lot of content and information being posted this week through Twitter (#msbic and #teched – Twitter handles) and Blogs.
