CIAOPS Virtual Technology Meeting–Agenda update

Our original speaker for the August meeting, Microsoft Technical Evangelist Jeff Alexander, has been gracious enough to change his travel arrangements to accommodate presenting on Wednesday the 7th of August 2013 as initially advertised. As you can appreciate, having access to Jeff is something that just can’t be passed up so I have slotted him back in for the event and pushed the Yammer presentation back.
Here is what Jeff is planning to speak on:
Title:  Windows 8.1 Update!
Abstract: Windows 8 has been out for a few months now and we have received a ton of feedback.  In this session on Windows 8.1; Jeff Alexander will talk and demo some of the new changes and how they benefit small business’s and larger enterprises.  He’ll go through what’;s changed and show some of the cool new features including the update start screen, UI enhancements, desktop enhancements, the start button, new search and many more.  We will also cover enterprise features such as assigned access, mobile device management and workplace join.

CIAOPS Virtual Technology Meeting update

Our meeting next Wednesday 7th of august at 4pm has had a change of agenda. Unfortunately, Jeff Alexander from Microsoft discovered a scheduling conflict and is unavailable. Have no fear, I think there are plenty of people who’ll be interested in the substitute topic:
All about Yammer
In this session you’ll receive an introduction to the Yammer product and learn how it will be integrated into Microsoft products such as SharePoint Online.

Presenter = Robert Crane, Office 365 MVP

I will also endeavour to record the session and make it available after the fact but if you attend the meeting you’ll be able to ask specific questions and interact with other attendees during the general discussion part of the meeting. If you haven’t already I urge you to register for the event at:
