These session notes serve primarily to share the content of the session and as a reference for me. They may also provide some value to those interested in the session topics. Some of the information found in these notes may be inaccurate due to my typing errors or a lack of understanding of the subject matter. DevTeach policy is that session material is available online to registered attendees only, so I cannot respond to any requests for session PPTs or source.
Jim snaps his fingers and women walk into the room. (You had to be there.)
70,000 downloads of DotNetNuke.
DotNetNuke source in VB.NET.
Password key encryption.
Host and Admin accounts on first load. Host all sites, Admin this site.

Dnnskins.com for DotNetNuke Skins.
Snowcovered.com. Jim grabbed an ecommerce app he heard good things about for $1.99.
Summary: Jim is a riot! I had checked-out DNN before, but Jim’s presentation got me juiced up about it. Will definitely be investigating it. Having sessions on DotNetNuke was a great idea. 9 out of 10.
