From blogger Brian Egler, SQL Server Strategies: I have worked with SQL Server for many years now, back to Sybase SQL Server days and there has always been confusion over logins and users.

From blogger Glenn Weadock, Windows Server 2008: Camtasia Studio, from TechSmith, allows the user to record a video of an operation in a fairly space-efficient format.

It's a bit of a surprise but BetaNews.com is reporting their testing shows Windows 7 RC speeds up browser performance. IE specifically picks up the pace by about 12%. If this is due to the revamped TCP stack, we should see a speed up in other network applications, says blogger Mitchell Ashley. SharePoint Users: Making Connections on LinkedIn and Facebook
From blogger Susan Hanley, Essential SharePoint: On June 26, I'll be speaking at the SharePoint Users Conference in Washington, D.C. but if you can't attend, there are many ways to virtually connect with the growing SharePoint community.
