High Praise!

13 01 2010

We received this from someone on the PowerShell team at Microsoft today. Made us feel mighty fine. 🙂

“I know running the Podcast is  often a thankless job, but you guys are nailing it. It is absolutely one of the highlights of the PowerShell community – you guys should be very proud for what you’ve accomplished.”

As always, we do love hearing from all of our listeners. Whatever you have to say, please let us know! Also, don’t forget to send in tips for show 100—there will be a product giveaway…





We need your tips!

12 01 2010

Episode 100 is breathing down our necks and we want to do something a little bit different and fun to celebrate. That’s where you come in. We would like for you to send us your best/favorite PowerShell tips and tricks. If you can send us an audio file that would be fantastic. We would love to get your voice on the show. If you just want to email them to us that’s cool too. If you can send us a video (or a link to one) we will try and stream it during the live show as well as having the audio on the podcast. We know we have a crazy amount of expertise and creativity in our audience and this is a chance for you to share it.

Update: If creating an audio file isn’t convenient, you can also leave a voicemail at Hal’s Google Voice number: (678) 905-1173.

Thanks!





This Thursday: Steven Murawski talks about PowerShellCommunity.org and More!

11 01 2010

From his website: Steven Murawski

I’m the Director for Research and Development for ProPhoenix, a public safety software company. This position allows me to investigate new and existing technologies and incorporate them into our product line, with the end goal being to help public safety agencies to do their jobs more efficiently and safely.

I’m an advocate for PowerShell, as I believe it encourages administrative best practices and allows developers to provide additional access to their applications, without needing to explicitly write code for each administrative feature. Part of my advocacy for PowerShell includes my blog, appearances on various podcasts, and acting as a Community Director for PowerShellCommunity.Org

I’m also a co-host of Mind of Root (a weekly audio podcast about systems administration, tech news, and topics).  We stream our show live on UStream.tv on Wednesday evening at 8:30 PM CST.

Steven Murawski (@StevenMurawski on Twitter)is a friend-of-the-show and it’s about time we had him on! We plan on discussing PowerShellCommunity.org and working with the Microsoft Sync Framework from PowerShell. Of course, if you join our live stream, then you will be able to post questions for Steven and help direct the discussion.
