it feels so good to be busy again.  While I can’t discuss the details of the project I’m working on for Pillar, I can say I’m having a lot of fun.

The project is a nice change of pace from things I’ve worked on in the past.  I’m focused on the back-end and middle-tier which is where I love to be.  We have a couple guys focused on the UI (one of them is also helping me with the middle-tier).

On top of the new project, a friend and I spent this past Tuesday/Wednesday in Chicago.  We hit the Vista/Office 2007 launch event at McCormick Place.  It was cool to get the free copy of Office 2007 Pro, but I find the launch events pretty boring.  Hours of marketing fluff…ugh.  Gimme a CodeMash or Code Camp any day.
