The BaltoMSDN user group meeting is being held tonight at Greystone Grill in Hunt Valley, MD. AIS is sponsoring this event as a Happy Hour. Scott Allen, fouder of www.odetocode.com and published author is presenting on the ASP.NET MVC Framework - this should be a great event. Please visit www.baltomsdn.com for further details.

Hope to see you there!

PAR-TAY!

Had a blast at the AIS Holiday party last night. It was great to see everyone dressed to the nines - it's amazing how different people can look with a thorough shower and a pressed suit - I didn't even recognize some people. The food was excellent, the gambling was omnipresent and the drinks were flowing...clearly. I even managed to have some coversations that were not focused on business. All in all, it was a successful evening. I look forward to many more AIS celebrations!
