Omaha .NET Users Group July Meeting
Fellow .NET users, Thanks for all of the interest that we generated around Silverlight at our last meeting. This new technology continues to gain momentum and (in my opnion) will soon change the way we all perceive web development!
This month the Team System and .Net user's groups are joining forces to explore what's new in Visual Studio 2010. Our next Team System / .NET Users Group meeting will be held on Thursday, July 30th, at 6:00pm (food will be provided 15 to 20 minutes prior to the start of the meeting). Meeting Details **Location:
