Ok gang � it�s almost November 6, and you know that that means� it�s time for Tulsa TechFest!

Here are just some of the speaker highlights you can look forward to when you attend:
- Joe Fletcher � UX Lead for Microsoft Surface, talking about Touch Computing
- Jennifer Marsman � DE from Ann Arbor, talking about Azure, WF and Win7 Multi-touch

As you can see, there are a LOT of very experienced speakers delivering some AWESOME sessions.

Luckily for you, David Walker has brought all this talent together into one FREE event!
When is this event and how do I register, you�re asking? Here�s all the important info you�ll need to share with your boss/manager/spouse/etc to get the day off to come out to Tulsa:
