Backup Evolution

24 hours in New Orleans
I’m very exited and grateful to be in New Orleans for TechEd 2010: straight off 3 flights yesterday (I hate flying) I went straight on a fish and seafood bender. I guess I got back to the hotel slightly pickled around 5am GMT. Today I have been out and about in street cars and marching on [...]
