Where It’s At: GestaltIT Field Day Seattle
July 12th, 2010 | 
Author: | "There’s a destination a little up the road from the habitations and the towns we know." For me this week that destination is Seattle, WA. In a turn of the tables, but not the turntables Beck refers to, I’ll be a presenter at the latest GestaltIT Tech Field Day (TFD) in Seattle on Thursday. I’ve previously attended the inaugural TFD in San Jose last fall as an independent blogger, but this time around I am employed by sponsoring vendor Veeam Software. I sat shoulder to shoulder with a few of the delegates last time, but now I will be standing in front of them. Regardless, GestaltIT TFD Seattle will definitely be "Where It’s At" at the end of the week. |

On Wednesday I’ll be "passing the (virtual) dutchie from coast to coast" as I fly from Georgia to Washington. Veeam will be presenting to the TFD Delegates first thing Thursday morning. During our presentation look for Veeam to be be "pulling out jives and jamboree handouts." I’ll tweet and blog what I can, but I’m sure the Delegates will provide their own "jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow."
As with TFD events in the past, Weds through Friday Twitter will rattle like "bottles and cans (so I advise you get ready) and just clap your hands and just clap your hands."
