Today I went to my first Greater Lansing .NET Users group event. Day of .NET. It was fun. I was honestly surprised. I was thinking, "Why the hell am I getting up this early to go hang out with a bunch of nerds...I could cut my lawn." But I stayed the whole day. It went by fast. I saw a bunch of people I knew previously. And I learned some things. There were a great bunch of speakers. Unfortunately a lot of the speakers that I wanted to hear were at the same time. All in in all it was a great experience. Plus great incentives to go, grand prize was a year MSDN subscription, others were tools like Infragistics. I did notice that a lot of the speakers knew each other and that there was some kind of circuit of presentations. Ahhh the lifestyles of nerds. I mean who else goes to a "work" thing on the weekend? We were all nerds there. I'm going again.
