Doug Turnure
Doug Turnure, a Microsoft Developer Evangelist in Atlanta, came to Knoxville and did a talk on Multithreading in .NET. I've always enjoyed Doug's talks and this was no exception. In March in Atlanta, I listened to Doug talk about interfaces and really enjoyed it. Doug takes these complicated concepts and breaks them down into really simple items. I didn't know this, but Doug had previously worked at Developmentor. I guess that's why he is pretty good at explaining these concepts, he has worked as an instructor doing that. To go one step further, I think that Atlanta, which is where Doug is based, is outside of his georgraphic area as a MS DE.
Anyway, thanks to Doug for coming to Knoxville and presenting.
