Last year, the entire gang at Engage Software took off two days at work and headed South to Tulsa to attend the annual Tulsa TechFest event. We all had a good time learning from many industry experts and met like-minded people around the country. I learned a few things and so did many of my colleagues.
This year, Engage Software came back with the entire track of DotNetNuke. If you’re a DotNetNuke fan, be sure to come out to meet and learn a few more things or just plain exchanging ideas to help improving the community.
If you’re new to DotNetNuke and would like to learn more about it, this is a great opportunity to attend a free conference (or paying $2 per day to donate to charity). Our training courses at Engage often starts at $599 per day so this is a great bargain.
It is official that I joined the DotNetNuke Gallery team led by Néstor Sánchez. Compare to the last time I looked at the module was more than a year ago. Wow, if you haven’t seen it recently, you should definitely check it out.
Currently, the module is still in 4.3.0 Beta. But tremendous improvement and bug fixes have been implemented. You can view a live demo here and get a general idea for your next projects.
My main responsibility for the Gallery module will be helping with the UI design and usability in general. Keep an eye on the project; I’ll be updating some cool UI elements and templates if you wish to use this module for your production. Also, I’ll make sure that I’ll be picky about the workflow to make everybody’s job in managing this module easier.
