More "Midwest" In The User Group List

January 30, 2009

(this post is a continuation of my post on Midwest Microsoft Developer User Groups)

 

Angela Binkowski, one of the stellar team of developer and architect evangelists for Microsoft in the Midwest, pointed out last night that I needed more “Midwest” in my post listing Midwest user groups. She’s helped out by adding a few more of these excellent user groups that their team gets involved with in the WI, IN, MI areas.

 

A big thanks to Angela for the additions. Be sure to check out Angela’s blog and keep an eye out for her presentations. She gave a great walkthrough on Visual Studio 2010 and the updates to the architect tools to the CAG last night.

Wisconsin .NET Users Group

The Wisconsin .NET Users Group was founded on February 12, 2002 at the launch of Visual Studio.NET. Our mission from inception has been to develop a peer group of developers, architects, and managers who are interested in learning, sharing and growing their Microsoft .NET knowledge and capabilities. The group’s vision is to provide members with a forum to hear top industry experts speak, learn and teach others who are interested in the same technologies as you and are facing the same challenges. The Wisconsin .NET Users Group covers the entire spectrum of .NET technologies, including the Windows Server System, XML web services, application development with Visual Studio.NET and the .NET Framework (including web, mobile, and desktop applications.)
