Tech Ed 2008 Video Interviews - Introduction

tech ed 2008 splash

For the last two Tech Eds (2006 in Boston and 2007 in Orlando), I recorded video interviews of Exchange Product Group folks.  Then I took them and published them via the Exchange Team Blog on the Video section.  These interviews were pretty much the "talking head" format where I was off camera asking questions and the person being interviewed was the focus of the video.  I received feedback that perhaps I should consider being in the videos on my next go around.

This year at Tech Ed 2008 in Orlando, I decided to setup the camera on a tripod (thank you Keith Combs for the use of your tripod) and have both me and the interviewee in the video.  Also, rather than just focus on Product Group folks from the Exchange team, I decided to expand out to the entire Unified Communications (UC) team which includes Office Communications Server.  In addition to Product Group folks, I also interviewed a MVP, a Partner and a Customer.  I have rendered these and will be publishing them one at a time via a streaming media server.  The first one will go live tomorrow with others to follow (hopefully one per day or so).
