I've been here in Lexington, Kentucky for the past 4 days. I was fortunate enough to meet two of the brightest minds in the industry! Also, I can't forget Chad Hobson (checkout that killer site, what mad skillz). Anyways, back to the brightest minds. I got to meet Shaun Walker, founder of DotNetNuke, and Scott Willhite, one of the Board members for DotNetNuke. I of course got them to sign my DotNetNuke book while they were...

I decided today was the day to Upgrade Solo2.org. I'm upgrading the software to run on CommunityServer 2.0 Beta 1. Here's to hoping the beta is at least semi stable! I've got all of the posts up through 9am downloaded and imported into a DB, now I'm working on converting them into a good CS format so I can get the site up and running tonight. I'm converting from a DNN/Ubb.Classic website to run Solo2.org fully out of...

I've upgraded SoloPerformance.com.com to dotnetnuke 3.1.1 and put a new version of the DnnCart sofware up there as well. The latest version of DnnCart has more friendly url changes, and is building links with friendly URLs using Category Names and Product names, which would help to increase our search...

If you're looking for a dotnetnuke book check out this one written by some of the dotnetnuke Core Team Members. I believe there is a brief bio about all the DNN core team members, which means that I'm mentioned in the book! I've been in a few magazines, this will be my first book besides credits in some The Sporting News publications while I worked there. Found a blog by WROX, looks like the book won't be in my hands for another week...

This post is mainly for search indexing, but have you seen the new SCCAForums.com? After over a year of putting it off waiting for good software (communityserver) and over a month of hard work, I got the new SCCAForums.com launched this past weekend. Check it out! Many more enhancements are...

Last night's user group meeting ended up getting started around 6:20, maybe closer to 6:30. We left the building just after 9. I tell ya, my voice was about done with after those 2.5 hours, even though I had a glass of water there to try to help keep my throat going. I covered ALOT of information, I felt a lot better about this presentation then I did the one I had in Springfield earlier this year. I tried to stay more in line with the Powerpoint (any interest to make that downloadable?) as to not veer off topic too far and cover some of the key features of dnn. After finishing up with the power point I started working more with an actual dnn install and showing the capabilities and how to use dnn out of the box. I really could have talked for another 8 hours on how to use dnn, I know this because I've done 3 days of training on dnn before, so trying to fit the key points and functionality into a few hours is tough. Hope everyone walked away with a better understanding of dnn, and hopefully I generated some more local interest for the...

I'm doing a Intro to dotnetnuke presentation at the St. Louis VB.Net user's group meeting this evening. Not sure how many folks will show up for the event, but I'll be there nonetheless. I'll most definitely be keeping the presentation trimmed down a bit more than the one I did in Springfield back in January. I tried to cover way too much information in the time alotted and went over by about an hour. Hopefully I can drum up some interest to get a dnn User's Group started here in STL so I can get working on...

Well, somehow I have gotten back into doing web sites for friends! I'm currently working on 3, already setup one for Brian, setup one for Greg but need to tweak it to give it a good look and then train him on how to use it. I've also gotta set one up for Faye, but hers will have to wait till she buys a domain name, and so I can come up with a look/feel for her site as well. I'm using the new CommunityServer release from Telligent Systems for these sites, it allows for blogs/galleries/forums all in one app, and once I get the skinning down the sites will be pretty...

This is going to be a busy week from the looks of things! I'm thinking that there will be a release candidate coming from both Telligent Systems for their Community Server solution, and from the dotnetnuke team. I've also been working heavily on DnnCart and a web site for a client. The Client's site is about finished and ready to go. DnnCart is getting close to being ready for an upgrade for SoloPerformance.com. I hope to have more of a test site for SPS up and running later this week for people to demo. Currently I have it running so that I can test and place...

True to my nature of needing change, I spent the past 30 minutes messing around with solo2.org. Gave it a minor make over. I've trimmed down the mast head by 50% to save space, changed the coloring of the masthead, removed the car photo for a little while as well. I also modified the coloring of the menu.... It was either do that, or buy another domain name and start up a new project... I swear I have...
