It's been way too long since I've blogged and I've been extremely busy.  TechEd 2007 in Orlando was absolutely terrific.  You can read a couple of blog postings I wrote about TechEd on my personal site at www.vonlar.com.  But I wanted to make sure to talk about how my presentation went.

I was completely shocked to see over 60 people attend my session on "Running or Starting your own Software Business".  While I was worried people wouldn't get as much out of it, since user participation is what makes the presentations so good, I think it went pretty well.  Unfortunately we ran out of time and I didn't get a chance to cover the marketings and sales portion.  I also wished I could have gone more in depth on the tools portion as well.  It wasn't my best session, but I still think it was valuable to some. 

I always love how there is always a handful of people that get so much out of the session that I can literally see them walk away so excited and pumped, ready to use the knowledge everyone shared with them.  This session was no exception, and so much so, a few of us sat around afterwards chatting.  Seeing that type of excitement is what makes it all worth doing, and I'm so glad people can learn from my own mistakes.

This time I was honored that at least one person (there may have been more, but I only met one) had a much larger business (probably 10+ employees) who attended my session.  I also got to talk with another true inventor type entrepreneur.  The type of person who comes up with tons of ideas, so many in fact that they can never complete them all.
