Look out Orlando... TechEd 2008 is just around the corner.

One of these days I'll make it to a TechEd that's NOT in Orlando, but for now I'm just happy to announce that yes, The Great One, will in fact be at Tech Ed 2008 Developers in Orlando, FL. :)

I'll be hitting the BillG keynote, some sessions (mostly the Developer Tools & Languages track), checking out the booths, talking VB.NET to anyone who wants to do so, and of course hitting the awesome TechEd MVP party at the House of Blues. (Unfortunately, The Great One will not be attending Party With Palermo this year. My plane gets in LATE on Monday.)

I'd also love to know how many of my fellow GWB peeps (and Tweeps for those of you on Twitter) will be at Tech Ed this year.

All kidding aside, I'm really quite excited about getting the opportunity to attend Tech Ed again. The last time I went was in 2005 and it was awesome. This year looks to be even better (and more focused on Dev topics, thanks to the new format.)

See you there!
