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).
Microsoft User Group Survey
Microsoft is asking us to pass on a link to this survey to our user group participants. It closes June 25th, so don't take too long before you fill it out.

No Syracuse Meeting in April
I haven't given up on Syracuse meetings, I just can't fit it into my schedule this month. Plus I'm still trying to find ways to drive attendance. If you have ideas on that or are willing to help out, please let me know.
April 21st is Script Club in Rochester!

No Syracuse Meeting in March
I'll be out of town at the Techmentor conference in Orlando next week so we'll skip a user group meeting this month. Watch this site for news on future meetings.

Syracuse PowerShell User Group 2/10
Sorry for not formally announcing this earlier, but I'm still planning on a meeting of the Syracuse chapter of the Upstate NY PowerShell User Group at the usual New Horizons location in DeWitt. We'll start promptly at 6:00. Remember the building locks at 6:00 so please try to arrive a little earlier. If you think you'll be a little late, email me and we can make arrangements.
I'll talk a little about remoting in PowerShell 2.0 and then we'll take a look at what ever PowerShell script projects you're working on. Come ready to learn and bring a friend.
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.
Syracuse PowerShell Users Group Script Club 1/13/2010

Anyone within driving distance of Syracuse, NY is welcome to attend.
