St. Louis Day of .NET August 5th and 6th, 2011

The 4th annual St. Louis Day of .NET conference was held at the Ameristar Resort and Casino. This event was attended by over 800 people. The event was very well organized. The organizers and the volunteers did an excellent job to ensure that things went smoothly. This was my third year attending this event.

This year was different for me. I had the priveledge to convene an open space. The topic that I had chosen was "Transition from a developer to a manager". As you know, I had recently became a manager. So, this was a topic that I have some experience with. I had over 40 people attending my open space. I was shocked by the turnout. There was a lot of great discussion and I personally learned a lot from those who have attended and shared their experiences.

I am looking forward to next year. Attending great sessions, meeting new friends, seeing old ones, and great conversations are priceless.
