More than a thousand of our closest friends in the SharePoint community have joined us this week in Boston for SPTechCon. With over 80 workshops and technical classes delivered by the top minds in SharePoint today, the event has been sold out for more than a month, and for that, we thank all of you.

As if you need MORE proof that SharePoint is a phenomenon, consider that the attendee profile for SPTechCon Boston represents 46 of the 50 U.S. states and 29 countries all around the globe. No wonder Microsoft’s messaging on SharePoint going forward involves online and cloud computing!

If you’re not with us in Boston, we’ll be liveblogging and tweeting wildly from the event, so if you want to follow along, the twitter hash tag is #sptechcon, and the liveblogging will be streamed on the endusersharepoint.com website.

We’ll be introducing some 50 new classes and some excellent new speakers for the next SPTechCon, being held Feb. 7–9 next year in San Francisco. Registration for that event is now open, and we expect it to be another sellout, so I’d encourage early registration… That also gives you the best discounted price!

Gotta go… Introducing a keynote in a little while!
