WOW I went to a MSDN event today… all I can say is wow if you have not been to a MSDN event you need to experience this type of event. You can see all kinds of geek information all in a movie theater. And yes if you try hard you can sneak in to a free movie after the event .
At the event today and I am sure at the event coming up this Thursday in Garden Grove for information about user groups and events so here is a list of local resources:
SoCal Resources:MSDN Flash (http://msdn.microsoft.com/flash)SoCal .NET Events (http://www.socalnetevents.org)List of SoCal User Groups (http://www.socalnetevents.org/Default.aspx?tabid=61) I know bad back ground but the list is good!
San Diego User Groups:San Diego .NET Developers Group (http://www.sddotnetdg.org)San Diego .NET User Group (http://www.sandiegodotnet.com)
