Regular Expression talk at Lansing's DODN

Last night's party at Jeff's was a lot of fun. We had the Xbox's "Rock Band" connected with all the controllers. I have always wondered what the hell is the deal was with games like these (why waste time on pseudo guitars when you can spend that time learning real guitars). But watching my buddies belt out lyrics to Radiohead and Blue Oyster Cult, I can see now see what the draw is -- they were really having fun. What a fantastic product this is, from a marketing and innovation standpoint. (the credit really goes to original innovator - Wii and Guitar Hero)





I thought yesterday's Day of Dot Net was a terrific success. We organized it at a grand scale pulled it through, with record participation, great publicity from local press and the finale with Lansing Mayor Bernero's address. Thank you Joe, Jeff, Vivek and others for doing such a bang-up job. For our first event we outdid both Ann Arbor and Grand Rapids in the scale and detailed level of planning. We had managed to get very famous speakers, had incredible amount of swag and other giveaways, and had great of food and beverages. The LCC West campus was a fantastic facility. I felt excited to be part of this group.

I really enjoyed speaking at the event. It was very interactive with lot's of questions. Since a few attendees requested the code samples, which I will post shortly. Here is the presentation.
