One of the reasons I don't blog that frequently is that I get many of my opinions out via the Developer Update newsletter.  I don't think I've posted about it recently, the Developer Update newsletter is published by Penton which is the parent company of WindowsITPro and SQLServer magazine. Sometimes when I mention that I write a twice monthly free e-mail newsletter on developer issues I'm asked about where someone signs up.

To subscribe go to the Windows IT Pro free newsletter page and add your email address, then down near the bottom (under the SQL Server Magazine heading) you'll see the Developer Update newsletter.  Here's a link: http://www.windowsitpro.com/email/index.cfm

The next issue is this Friday.  However, be forewarned, my column contains opinion and as such you may be offended, so if you read this blog and you are easily offended you might want to avoid reading my opinions - they can cross the map, in fact in the next issue I've been asked to suggest a European trip to everyone... honest.

(How's that for a teaser trailer... doesn't it just make you wonder what I could be writing about... of course you could also google my past articles - there are about 120 out there on Penton and the MSDN sites; a couple still locked down but most are freely available.)
