       TechEd 2005
TechEd is coming up  in a few weeks.  I'm excited to be going this year.  Aside from the  bonus of having it in Orlando (well, except for the humidity), there look to be  some really interesting sessions.  My top most interesting session that I'm  looking forward to attending is "Anatomy of a Network Hack: How to Get your  Network Hacked in 10 Easy Steps".  While my forte is Exchange server, the  anatomy of how hackers infiltrate corporations is fascinating to me (not to  mention the hacking bit itself).  I really believe that in order to  understand how hackers work, you need to understand how to hack a  network.
 I'm excited to be  going for another reason as well.  This year, Microsoft has asked me (ok, I  volunteered and they picked me) to help staff their Messaging Cabana (used  to be Ask the Experts).  If you are going to TechEd, be sure to stop by and  say Hi!  I'm looking forward to hearing some of the questions and problems  that folks are encountering.  Are you going to TechEd this year?  What  are the most interesting sessions to you?
