Watch the SharePoint Conference Live, from your home/office (9am Pacific, 6pm CET)
In 20 minutes a very important event is going to get started: the SharePoint Conference 2009! If you're not in Vegas (like me), get yourself in front of a computer with a big bag of chips, popcorn or whatever snack you prefer, and watch the keynote (featuring Steve Ballmer) live! I'm sure it will be a nice show and expect an avalanche of SharePoint 2010 information to be released shortly afterwards. Also make sure you keep an eye on Twitter, blogs, Facebook etc. to see the reactions of SharePoint fans all over the world. My buddies at EndUserSharePoint are going to cover the conference with lots of real time content, so these pages will be open on my pc as well. Have fun!
