Another week gone, another week closer to SQL PASS! (Click here for #SQLPASS Twitter chatter.) In the meantime, let's talk free stuff.
We begin with the ghosts of free stuff past. The North Texas SQL Server User group meeting was last night, and in addition to the free pizza, free PSSDIag talk by @sqlserversleuth, and free networking, we had our usual free SWAG. It's okay, you'll have another chance next month…
Thanks to @SQLChicken and @PASSMN for the discount code. Best stated in their own words: "SQL! Online! Conference! http://bit.ly/4jGYV Discount code-SPJSUVC09-In the words of Monty Python, Nudge, nudge, know what I mean"
A free book, in your choice of English or Italian, on a special time managemetnt technique: http://www.pomodorotechnique.com/
A free Windows 7 e-book in German, Windows 7 Auf einen Blick (thanks @MicrosoftPress, but shouldn't it be "Fenster Seiben Auf einen Blick"?)
Remember SQLChicken's SQL University! It's all online and all free, all the time.
