Speaker BIO:
Great Book Discounts This Week!
Did you know that the O'Reilly store sells books by other publishers? They sell MS Press, No Starch Press, Pragmatic Bookshelf, and more. Why do I mention this? Because they have a discount for our user group members: just use the code DSUG when you're checking out to get 40% off of any book, and 50% off eBooks (which they make available in ePub, PDF, and MOBI formats).
June Atlanta PowerShell User Group Meeting
Our June meeting will be all about PowerShell Profiles. Mark Schill will be demoing his profile. Some of the key concepts that he will be covering include:
- aliases
- one-liner functions
- other functions
- setting prompt
- env vars
- "configuring your environment"
- sync/roam across machines
- modular (dot-source or import) vs monolithic (all in one file)
If you have any cool tips/tricks that you use in your profile and would like to share, email them to Mark.Schill@cmschill.net.
O'Reilly Book Program
As I mentioned at the last meeting you can request a review copy of any book available from O'Reilly including Microsoft Press books. Here is a URL for the PowerShell books; http://search.oreilly.com/?q=powershell, but your request does not have to be PowerShell related at all. Here are the requirements.

More Features on PowerShellGroup.org
I just wanted to let you all know ... if you have a user group or script club hosted here on PowerShellGroup.org, you can create forum threads (like this one) for discussion!
We can also set up private group email discussion/announcement lists for you, with an address @PowerShellGroup.org (eg: Rochester@PowerShellGroup.org or Tampa@PowerShellGroup.org, etc.)
We also allow attachments on posts, but there's unfortunately a size limit imposed by our PHP server, so if you need to upload larger files, we can set up your administrator with an FTP account so you can upload larger files like user group presentations, recordings, etc.
