I spent the last year and a half working for a small company with 20+ employees in a 'get er done' coding frenzy of chaos.  My new employer is a Fortune 500 company with a more metered pace to the development process.  After getting my head above water with my new employer, I realized that I had failed to keep up with the new technologies coming from Microsoft.  I also realized that working in a small company, although exciting, can leave you with a lack of exposure to your peers and their ideas and best practices.  It is this that drove me headlong into the world of Blogs and Podcasts in an attempt to continue my growth as a professional software developer.  With a sizeable bloggroll and backlog of podcasts, I am beginnind to feel like the bull is going to let me think I am in control for a little while.

The purpose of my blog is multi-fold:

• Share valuable blog posts, articles and podcasts I come accross related to software development (both general and .Net specific)
• Help Promote the Space Coast Dot Net User Group
• A forum for my random thoughts and ramblings

Here we go...
