Bill Miller’s Tech Talk

Posted on February 9, 2006 by Matt

I’m blogging from MAN 122 while listening to Bill Miller’s talk on recognizing trends in the industry and working up a skill set
He has mentioned there are various techniques.
Some Methods to use:

  • Watching Amazon.com Keep an eye on what people have in their wishlist. That’s current!
  • Trade Magazines – IEEE, ACM, C/Net, etc.
  • Conferences- Mix 06′ anyone?
  • Online communities – Blogs
  • http://channel9.msdn.com/
  • http://blogs.msdn.com/
  • Users groups – West Michigan .NET Users Group
  • Talk to people in the field, professors, friends, cube buddy

    • Ok, so we got kicked out early bout 5:50 by some class 🙁
    That was a bummer, but it was great having Bill come and give a talk. He certainly gave us a few nuggets of information to walk away with. I’m definitly looking forward to having him back for future talks.
