I was a bit amazed to meet a fellow Fairbanksan, Jane Vohden, at SQL PASS in Dallas last week. (It’s rare that I encounter anyone from Alaska, much less Fairbanks.) She works for the Fairbanks North Star Borough, and we’ve started talking about forming a combined SQL Server/.NET users group. At this point we’re just talking, but it’s something we’d love to do.
All we have to do now is search out the no doubt immense hordes of SQL Server DBAs and .NET developers in Interior Alaska who might be interested in getting a group going. So if you are one or know of one, or if you want to become a member of what might end up being the furthest north such user group (maybe in the world, but almost certainly in the U.S.) give me a shout.
