Hi, I’m Craig Bailey and this is my personal blog where I write about technology, business systems, HubSpot and general life experiences. You can read my posts here.
(If you are looking for the Content is King post by Bill Gates it is here)
I’m involved with three agencies in Sydney:
I also co-host HubShots, the podcast and YouTube show focussed on getting the most out of HubSpot. We are the creators of the HubShots Framework.
Is anyone else wondering where the Visual FoxPro September newsletter is? I’m hanging out for Milind’s report on Advisor Devcon (Rick’s here was great reading) and other news about the Sedna project…
Great to read Doug’s feedback on Prague. See also Dave Crozier’s report – great reading.
Rick sheds some light on how to prepare properly for presenting at conferences. Excellent advice and mandatory reading for any conference presenter. As a very experienced audience member {g} I deeply applaud his first suggestion on being well prepared. probably picked up my lack of excitement about under prepared speakers in previous posts. But it comes down to this: I don’t care if you are...
Yes, another(!) beta. Download it here. I know we promised to release this ages ago, but we’ve been slack… This release fixes a few minor items (eg the flickering between tab changes) and brings consistency between tab icon and tab label behaviour.A big, big thank you to Tracy P who has done most of the work for these fixes.

Craig Boyd, please help, we need another call to action…

In this post I’ll outline some suggestions I think Microsoft should consider in order to improve the event for next year.Firstly though, a brief note on my expectations going in to TechEd.My reasons for attending TechEd were:– to better understand Microsoft’s product range,– to understand their...
Classic stuff. Jensen Harris comes to terms with the stupidity of hype-induced Australian journalists.I wish I could take credit for this kind of misinformation spreading – it’d make a great April Fool’s prank. No doubt some clown at TechEd last week is responsible.
The always interesting and extremely serious {g} Anil Dash comments nicely on Google Apps for your Domain.I especially liked his second main point explaining why Google Apps doesn’t compete with Microsoft Office.
Exciting news! This Wednesday the Sydney VFP User Group will be combining with the Sydney .Net User Group to hear Eric Lee, Product Manager for Team Foundation Server, talking about TFS, Migrating VSS to TFS, and using TFS from VS2005 and VFP via the MSSCCI provider. Not to be missed (although sadly I have to leave early that night to fly down to Adelaide… bummer) Thanks to...
It was remiss of me in my last post not to mention the two inspirators (inspirational people) behind the TechEd Live concept. The first ofcourse is Paul Stovell, with his TechEd Session Picker (see him at TechEd doing a Dev Cabana session) – he definately got the momentum going. The second is Bill McCarthy with his TechEd 2006 Picker (see him doing the joint Cabana session...
