Hello folks!

After talking to Microsoft and seeing I will be in Auckland to attend TechEd 2009 we thought it would be interesting to have a parallel event... Monday evening there's the Tech Girls Dinner and we are thinking of having a small (limited to perhaps 40 or 50 people) dinner/pizza for Geekzone users attending the TechEd 2009 on that same evening.

Dinner would be after the welcome drinks on the evening of Monday 14th September. This event would only be open to people attending TechEd (your TechEd badge will be needed to get in!)

REGISTRATIONS ARE NOW OPEN HERE. More information here.

Note that is probable that any of the girls attending TechEd will be at the Tech Girls Dinner, meaning we will most likely have a boys only meeting...

Count me in...this will hopefully be my first geekzone get-together!
