Dave Bouwman and myself are honored to have been asked by the folks at Directions Magazine to participate in a webinar on how to successfully leverage ArcGIS Server in the Amazon Cloud.  We'll be collaborating with ESRI and Amazon to deliver a webinar on October 28, 2010.  ESRI and Amazon will provide the tech background while Dave and I will walk through the business case and a start-to-finish implementation we did for a client. 

Webinar info is posted here. (You'll need to scroll down the page a bit)

Register for the webinar over here.

Please consider joining us.

ESRI has been doing some neat developer outreach things lately to keep the community coming together outside of our once a year geekfest in Palm Springs.  A series of developer meetup events are being held across the country and October 20, 2010 the ESRI travelling medicine show comes to Fort Collins, CO.  This will be a great opportunity to rub elbows with other local devs and hear a few presentations by your peers. The best part is....Jack buys the beer.  This event will be hosted by Andy Gup of the ESRI EDN Team.

The Fort Collins event will be held from 5-8 pm at the Rustic Oven, 123 N. College Ave in old town.  Dave Bouwman will be giving the opening presentation on ArcGIS Server in the Amazon Cloud and then there will be a series of lightning talks.
