La verdad que el Code Camp fue un exito. Participaron alrededor de 300+ personas y algunas se me han acercado o mandado emails para felicitarnos por el evento. Como todo evento, el Code Camp tuvo sus problemitas que se pueden mejorar y los vamos a mejorar para el año que viene.
El evento empezo 15 minutos mas tarde por problemitas tecnicos. Gonzalo de Microsoft y yo abrimos el evento donde explicamos un poco sobre Code Camp y como iba a funcionar. Despues hablaron los chicos de Imagine Cup y explicaron un poco sobre el evento y de su experiencia en Corea...

So how do you know when a product has reached the highest level of "Product Impressionism"? Well, let...
For those of you interested in downloading the code for last night's Code Idol session: "Using SQL Server 2005 as a Document Repository" you can do so here. For more details on the code you can also read my previous post on the topic here.
The demo requires a table and bellow is the SQL to generate the table:USE [DocRepository]GO/****** Object: Table [dbo].[Doc] Script Date: 10/03/2007 09:12:38 ******/SET ANSI_NULLS ONGOSET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ONGOSET ANSI_PADDING ONGOCREATE TABLE [dbo].[Doc]( [DocID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [DocName] [nvarchar](100) NOT NULL, [Extension] [nvarchar](50) NOT NULL, [DocContent] [varbinary](max) NOT NULL,CONSTRAINT [PK_Doc] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( [DocID] ASC)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF,...
Please join me and the other looser contestants on the first ever Code Idol at Citrix, Ft Lauderdale. There will be 7 contestants (including me) fighting to be crowned "Top Geek."
