A great first event indeed. Kudos to the organizers. I had to leave early and missed the networking part. Look forward to exchanging ideas with everyone next time.

Kudos to the group for getting such a great speaker! Over the years I have followed Carl through user groups, conference and work at Oracle. I particularly like his thoughts on fluency practice which is something the industry doesn't always include in courses or programs. In my book he comes highly recommended. Don't miss out!
