LexDotNET Kickoff Meeting Last Night

So in the last week I have changed jobs and have been part of a new .NET User Group. LexDotNET was a good time last night. We had 9 attendees with a balance of non .NET people and some with experience. I gave a talk about Application Blocks and demo'ed the Data Access App Block which I find very interesting. We also have a great facility to have our meetings. Bluegrass Regional Mental Health is a non-profit and they offer their boardroom to groups to use. It also helps when the other founder of LexDotNET works there but hey we are lucky. I have tried to start user groups in the past and the hardest thing to manage is having a good meeting place with a projector and an internet connection. We are trying to find a speaker for next month. Topic is open and if someone is driving distance from Lexington, KY we can always offer some good bourbon and horses. If some Microsoft people read this and can send a speaker we would appreciate the help.
