News and Fluffery, YOU Edition

February 21, 2013 sql server 1 Comment

I like to keep an eye on the world at large for news of the weird, techie goodness, outrage in the IT sphere, and whatever else strikes my fancy.

This week, I’ve decided it’s your turn. (Isn’t it always, though?)

So what’s the most interesting, or urgent, or weird, or whatever piece of news or fluffery you’ve run across this week? Submit via comment below, and you too could win a chance at…well, at having your link read about on DBAs@Midnight Friday. And of course, you get to share your awesome find.

Off we go!

Oh yes, just to kick things off, here’s Sean holding a slab of heart-shaped Valentine’s Day beef: 20130220-214834.jpg
