Use PowerShell
The Shell Is Calling
PowerShell Community
I’m on TechNet Radio!
Jul 1st
A little while back, I had an opportunity to talk with John Weston on TechNet Radio’s Community Corner.
We talked a bit about PowerShell and the community around it, as well as my local Script Club.
Thanks to John and Chris for taking the time to talk with me, and don’t forget to check out the other great segments in the Community Corner and see what is happening in other user groups!

Just some odds and ends from the week -

Time to Start Ramping Up for the Scripting Games
Mar 15th
The 2011 Scripting Games are fast approaching (April 4th through the 15th)..
If you’ve been holding off on learning a bit a PowerShell, now is the time to step up and try some of these events. Ed Wilson put together a study guide to help prepare you for some of the skills and techniques you will exercise.
If you have participated before, this year promises to be as fun and exciting, if not more so.
See you at the Games!
Spring 2011
Feb 8th
Spring 2011 is shaping up to be a busy time…
March 26th – I’m going to SQL Saturday in Chicago. I’ve submitted a couple of sessions (PowerShell Basics and Intermediate PowerShell), so I should know if one get’s accepted towards the end of this month. Regardless, I’m planning on attending. There are some other great potential PowerShell Sessions submitted there as well.
April 17th-19th – I’ll be at the PowerShell Deep Dive at The Expert’s Conference in Las Vegas.
April 29th-30th – I’ll be at the PICC (Professional IT Community Conference) in New Brunswick, NJ. I’ll be teaching a half day class on PowerShell Fundamentals.
And we are just getting into February here… Let’s see what else might come up!
