Microsoft TechFEST 2008 (Singapore)

I reckon I heard about the forthcoming TechFEST 2008 in October (23-24) from one of the Microsoft Insiders meetups a couple of months back. Likewise, I have received emails from Dennis concerning this and the topics that might be covered during the event. Early this afternoon, I received an email invite from sgevents@microsoft.com for the "Microsoft TechFEST 2008 – A Festival Featuring Microsoft Latest Technologies"; good thing I've informed my team about this earlier and was given the green light by my boss to go.  Good thing my cost center is going to cover for the SGD$99 registration fee. I'm looking forward to meeting the Pinoy MVPs during the two-day event (Pom, Ed, Andre, and Jay) and learn a thing or two from these experts.

And what do I get with the 99-singbucks? To say a lot will be an understatement:

- 3 MSPress Books (1 on Windows 2008, 1 on SQL 2008, 1 on Visual Studio 2008) total worth $168

- 1 Keynote and 12 Break Out Tracks

- Up to 42 Hands On Labs (Hyper-V, BI, SQL Security, Silverlight2, WPF)

- Free Access to MCS & MVPs during this period (make the most out of the MCS folks, ask them questions, they are your bloody expensive friendly consultants)

-And more!
