Wrapping up TechEd Middle east with a nice surprise

a nice surprise

TechEd Middle East 2010 just ended. It was unfortunate that I couldn’t attend the whole 3 days. Regardless, it was such good fun. Obviously I had a chance to meet and chat with the MVPs from the region and the veteran speakers like Scott Hanselman and Aaron Skonnard. Expect to see a few TechEd photos once I got them from Anton Delsink.

Did both of my sessions (EF4 and panel with Hanselman) today, and what a nice surprise; The current ladder says that I’m in the top 10 speakers ladder. Obviously the numbers of vote or somewhat low so probably skewed to an (…err..alot of) extent. But, I take what I can get

I want to share you a couple of the nice folks who left me with encouraging comments:

“Ronald was awesome. He did a very good job. He explained things in a very well manner. I look forward to attending his more sessions.”

The first comment was probably made by Andrew Mackay, I can so hear him saying that “ …. he did a very good job.” Definitely Andrew!

More comments below

“Great Knowledge outcomes. Thanks Ronald”

“Nice overview, would have liked longer or more sessions on subject”

“It’s very nice session”

“Was a wonderful session in terms of showcasing what I can do with Entity framework. And it motivated me to use the same in my next project.”

Thanks to Anton, Hammad Rajjoub and Julie Lerman (The Data Farm) for taking the time to review the slides, demos and giving valuable feedback!
